Impact

Sustainability

As a small but growing organisation, we recognise that policies and actions should reflect the world that we want to be part of, not just today, but also in the future. To make our vision for the future a reality, we embrace a number of sustainability best practices including: Going Paperless, choosing recycled products where appropriate, controlling our energy consumption including the use of electricity in the office, recycling and re-purposing office equipment, and donating surplus equipment to be be reused.

Ethical Impact

To reduce the ethical impact of our programs, we work with and promote locally-owned businesses and service providers to ensure that local communities benefit from our interns making their cities home for a short period. From locally-owned bars and restaurants that we recommend in our city guides, to local projects and charities where interns can give back more directly, we recognise the importance of offsetting our impact.

This is why I love music

This summer, I had the opportunity to intern in Amsterdam, my country's capital city. It was a great mix of professional and personal development, and getting to re-know a city I last lived in as a child. Amsterdam is a city that you have to just get out and explore on foot or by bike, and there is so much to see and do.

I have been passionate about music for a number of years, and being able to finally attend some of our biggest summer events was a great feeling. The energy of the people I worked with really excited me and made me happy to go into work each day.

Amsterdam is back to being as busy as it was before covid, and in some ways this makes the weekends a little too packed up, but we had great weather for most of my stay, and taking the boat over to Noorderpark or spending a Saturday in Westerpark with friends felt relaxed. It was great that the program offered us a few opportunities to meet other students to get us settled into the city and expand our groups, inspiring us to do as much as we possibly could with our time. I would encourage others to do this porigramme if they want to experience working and living in another city and overseas.

Pros
  • Very professional internship with great co-workers
  • Cosmopilitan life in Amsrerdam, with lots of chances to enjoy the city during weekends
  • Meeting new people in our group, and learning more abot different cultures and perspectives, not just in music

Eye-opening experience.

I wanted to intern in Amsterdam to learn more about myself and to begin building my CV, and BEATBRDG gave me exactly what I wanted this Summer. My internship companies were tailored exactly to my interests of music communications and pr. The internship-matching process was one of the things that I really found easy to work through and fast. We had helpful advisors in London and Amsterdam that looked after us and supported us when we arrived introducing us to some cultural and professional events for us to attend. Getting to live abroad for 6 weeks and being able to learn from some really great people made for a truly life-affirming summer.

Pros
  • Amsterdam has a beautiful energy.
  • Very engaging internship experience.

My thoughts on my internship in Holland

We all know Amsterdam, city of bikes, weed, and red lights, but Amsterdam was so much more than those cliches. Amsterdam is culture, great food, great people, cosy neighborhood vibes, weekend markets, and bikes, and more bikes! I've met some of the best people this summer in this city, and loved being able to get to reignite my passion for music here. I'd love to come back and spend more time again next summer! Thanks to the BEATBRDG team for connecting me with such great people, I really appreciate the opportunity and hard work. A hidden gem of a company.
