The challenge
Kiron University is a Berlin-based open education start-up with a mission to enable access to free higher education for refugees. Kiron serves students who seek better lives after escaping Syria and other war-torn countries by helping them continue their higher education without bureaucratic procedural delays and language barriers.
To realize its mission, Kiron is dependent on public and private funding support.
Our approach
In early 2016, a connection between Kiron management and LNE Group was established through personal contacts. LNE Group believes in the power of education to create economic opportunity and therefore chose to support Kiron's mission with gratis European Union and German government funding pursuit support.
