We don’t know where we might end up in the future or what kind of people and problems we will be working with. iX introduced me to this idea and inspired me to seek learning even in areas I may feel are out of my comfort. But even more importantly, to always be curious about what my peers are doing and be open to being pleasantly surprised at what I may find interest in.

iX gave me something concrete to put on my resume, and that was a huge leg up. Most juniors don't have projects to show potential employers. My time at iX also helped to formulate an idea of what kind of company culture and vision I wanted to be part of.

Two of the world's best travel destinations.

Gaining global experience changes your perspective and gives you an edge in the increasingly connected world.

Working and living in Cape Town for 6 weeks not only provided a respectable timeline for learning and interning but gave me time to interact with the global city more deeply than is possible as a tourist.
