DEGIS gGmbH
DEGIS (the German Association for International Students) works every day to build the largest community for internationals in Germany. From a nation-wide platform - offering qualified information to networking spaces - to local teams that aim to provide peer-to-peer support and connection to newcomers, our mission is to help every international in Germany to fulfill their dreams and goals.

Funding
We count on sponsoring by our "sister-company", which is Expatrio GmbH (a platform of services for internationals in Germany). We share the same founders and a similar mission, so they offer us not only coverage of basic operational costs but also working infrastructure (equipment and office). We also get support for a TK fund for international students' initiatives.
We are searching for funding options to diversify our sources of sustainability.
