International Education Programmes as Corporate Partnerships
Corporate Cooperation
We coordinate and organise programmes that bring German professionals to universities and colleges abroad as guest lecturers. For your company, this creates concrete added value: reportable CSR and ESG measures, impactful professional development, and direct access to growing markets.
Who We Are
Not an idea on paper a running programme with a track record
pecunia & fortuna has been placing German guest lecturers at Chinese colleges and universities for over two years. Our infrastructure is in place, our partnerships are proven, and our founders have taught on-site themselves. We are now opening this programme specifically to German companies.

Our Offer
Three ways to work together
Depending on your goals and resources, we tailor the partnership individually from a one-off pilot placement to a strategic annual partnership.
Corporate Teaching Fellowship
Your turnkey CSR programme: we send your employees as guest lecturers to our partner universities in China. You receive full organisation, didactic preparation, on-site support, and a professional impact report for your sustainability report. The entire programme fee is fully deductible as a business expense.
Fachkräfte & Markterschließung
Our partner universities are training thousands of young professionals, many of whom are already learning German and see part of their career in Germany. We connect you directly with motivated graduates and open up access to regions of China that international companies have largely yet to explore.
Individuelle Entwicklungs-kooperationen
Do you have your own vision for what international engagement could look like for your company? Beyond our China programme, we maintain close ties with education and development organisations worldwide. Together, we design and coordinate programmes that fit your sector and your objectives.
CSR & ESG Relevance
Sustainability report? We deliver the substance
The CSRD is requiring more and more companies to report on social measures in a standardised, auditable, and externally verified format. Our programme is not a vague statement of intent. It delivers concrete data points that flow directly into your report.
ESRS S1: Own Workforce
A documentable professional development measure with an international dimension: training hours, intercultural competence development, measurable employee satisfaction upon return. ESRS S1 is considered almost universally material — virtually no company can avoid reporting on it.
ESRS S3: Affected Communities
Direct educational support at Chinese universities: number of students reached, teaching hours delivered, qualitative impact descriptions. Particularly strong if your company has economic ties to China.
Fully Tax-Deductible
The programme fee is structured as a sponsorship service and is fully deductible as a business expense without the caps that apply to donations. Defined counter-performance (impact report, ESG data, branding) secures tax recognition.
Turnkey & Audit-Ready
You receive a professional impact report with standardised KPIs, SDG mapping and ESRS references print-ready for your sustainability report and robust enough for external audit by a statutory auditor.
Our Partnerships in China
Beyond the metropolises — where the opportunities are still untapped
Our partner universities are deliberately located not only in Shanghai or Beijing, but also in the growing regions away from the major metropolises. These are where the real potential lies: emerging industries, a young and motivated student body, and markets that German and international companies have barely begun to explore.
Many of these students are already learning German because they see their professional future abroad. A teaching placement by your employees does not only generate educational momentum on the ground — it also creates personal connections with highly motivated young talent who develop a direct affinity with your company and your field.
For companies that are active in China or planning market entry, the programme offers a unique advantage: your employees gain a deep cultural understanding — not as business travellers in a hotel, but as lecturers who become part of the everyday life of the university and the region.
German-learning students
Direct access to young professionals who are already learning German and pursuing international career paths.
Regions with growth potential
Partner institutions in regions that are economically on the rise and open to international cooperation.
Cultural understanding, not a flying visit
A multi-week stay with genuine immersion in local life, work culture, and academic life on the ground.
Talent pipeline
The opportunity to get to know promising graduates early on a recruiting channel that develops naturally.
