Phase 01
Awakening
An introduction to the host city's art, culture and business scenery, and training in the aspects that make a successful leader.
A week inside rooms you cannot book.

Park Avenue, New York
Students leave with a vision, and the tools to pursue it.
Visionarium runs intensive programs that prepare students to stand out in a highly competitive world. It began in New York, and now runs in Miami and Barranquilla as well.
We guide students to reach their full potential by giving them the tools and the environment to identify their passion, develop a vision and pursue social change — through training, hands-on experience and mentorship.
Three phases, one week.
Phase 02
Initiation
Students are immersed in real situations: negotiations, decision making, crisis management and team work.
Phase 03
Incubation
The space, guidance and facilitation to develop a business, product or program idea of their own.
Where it happens next.
One edition at a time, each in its own city. An edition keeps its page after it ends — what sells the next one is the record of the last.

In their own words.
Lines students wrote after the New York editions — the companies, the city, and what stayed with them. Every name is real and published with permission.
“I came thinking that only the best were recognized. I left knowing that there were infinite ways of being the best — so we can all be the best.”
“Lala once said to me — ‘Dream big, because all dreams are possible and the world is yours.’ Today I can say that thanks to Visionarium, I’m on the right path to become who I really want to be.”
“This is a very elegant and unique place, where we learned how to always be classy and graceful. I really enjoyed it!”
“In the streets of New York you sense some sort of equality. No person is more important than the rest. Everyone is thriving to get to their destination. Everyone mobilizes the same way: walking.”
“It is hard to describe Bloomberg in one word. Their technology, constant innovation and workspace are absolutely impressive.”
“Google is a really fun place to work and their inventions are always trying to help the human being evolve. The people that talked to us showed us a few inventions, and all of them were really inspiring.”
“Being at Visionarium was not an end, it’s the beginning of who I want to be tomorrow.”
