A Roundup of the Kreaverse

Curiosity, collaboration and global engagement defined the week’s spirit at Krea. The fourth edition of Higher Education Day brought students face-to-face with top universities from around the world, opening doors to international education and career pathways. Faculty-led research, talks, and workshops — both on campus and on global platforms — reflected a strong spirit of inquiry and intellectual exchange. Well-being Week activities encouraged reflection and self-care, and will continue over the next few days. With festivities just around the corner, the campus spirit is gathering momentum.
