2023 Organisation feedback

Eurostar logo

Participating in TeamWork for a second year in a row has been a great experience! Our organisation had the opportunity to collaborate with an amazing multi-cultural team from across the world and we were pleasantly surprised by the professionalism and the level of maturity of all the students. What was particularly positive is that their proposal was of great standard and is something that we could potentially implement in the near future. I truly believe that TeamWork is beneficial not only for the students but also for the organisations that decide to participate.”

TeamWork is a great opportunity for both the students and the business. To have a team of highly motivated students from leading universities working on your project for four weeks is incredibly helpful to the business."

Immersed in an intriguing and diverse activity, we relished the opportunity to connect with students from various nationalities. Warwick University's commitment to fostering such programs for student development, providing a gateway to global exposure through projects, is genuinely commendable. Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to the University for creating an enriching experience that broadens horizons and fosters a truly inclusive learning environment.”

The students took an outdated product and provided innovative ideas to modernise it, including elements of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (EDIB), sustainability, wellbeing, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital marketing. They worked brilliantly as a global team, coordinating their work, and we were delighted by the final deliverables.”

The diverse group of students who worked with us at Alma Grande helped us lay the foundation for a mangrove research center in Tuxpan, Veracruz. Their commitment, dedication, and passion for the environment played a vital role in the progress of Alma Grande.”

TeamWork was an amazing experience for my company. I got to connect with some bright minds and also gain a new perspective on a project. Moreover, it gave me an opportunity to really understand the type of people I would want in my company.”

2022 Organisation feedback

TeamWork has been a great opportunity to engage with students and listen to their fresh ideas about topics that have been on our radar for quite some time. The wide variety of their backgrounds, both cultural and academic, resulted in interesting questions that challenged our ways of thinking. What is more, their enthusiasm and professionalism were reflected in the quality of their deliverables which positively surprised me. For all these reasons, I look forward to collaborating with the next cohort of students.

The teamwork students brought a lot of enthusiasm and interesting, useful insights to the project. I was very proud to watch the students learn, develop and apply their skills/knowledge in a corporate environment. I would really recommend the partnership to other companies - you are able to help encourage and develop the next generation in a business environment but also improve your softer skills in the process.”

Defence Leaders logoWe embraced the opportunity to work with students from Warwick and other top universities on TeamWork. The attitude and application of the students during the project meant that the work they produced was used immediately. Their final presentation was used directly by our teams and contributed to a highly successful campaign for one of our biggest events.

We were also able to develop staff internally (in terms of their handling of the team) and could observe how students from different nations and experience levels worked together. We look forward to working with Warwick again in future years.

2021 Organisation feedback

The proactivity of the students and their motivation was fantastic. They exceeded our expectations - they delivered us with a report and insight which we will take forwards and use to develop our services further.

The commitment the team gave to delivering on our objectives was outstanding. We don’t get that commitment from some teams that we spend a lot of money on!

TeamWork 2021, Chief Executive, OTOJoy (USA)

The students' commitment and enthusiasm was excellent. They were given their brief and got on with the tasks to a very high standard, they certainly all worked very well together. They produced surveys and social media content that we will now use. We would recruit any of them!

TeamWork 2021, CEO, Adviza (UK)

It was a great experience to be part of this programme. I am very impressed with the quality of student work that came out of this project. With minor changes, we are planning to implement the students' suggestions for our digital presence. I cannot think of a better talent tool to reach out to.

TeamWork 2021, Thandra Consulting (India)

These projects required the students to climb fast learning curves across a range of disciplines. They had to come together from a standing start without any prior in-person interaction, bond as a working unit across national and cultural boundaries, become familiar with new and wide-ranging commercial, societal, and technical topics and learn to present their conclusions on a live virtual stage. That this was achieved, with a high level of competency and aplomb, is a credit to them as individuals and to their respective academic institutions. The work they produced was insightful and immediately of use to my sponsoring companies. I trust the experience the students gained will equip them well for their future careers and I remain highly impressed with the TeamWork programme. It generated an almost immediate return on my investment my time mentoring the teams and I will participate in the programme next year.
