Most institutions struggle to grow internationally because they waste budget in the wrong markets, lack vetted partners, and don’t have the staff capacity to manage it all. Catalyst GEM delivers a clear, scalable path to global growth, combining market insights, trusted partnerships, and direct student lead generation.
We help you identify the right markets and build visibility quickly. Depending on your needs, that could mean virtual campaigns to test demand or deeper, in-country engagement to establish a long-term presence.
Not every partner is a good fit. We screen agencies, institutions, and organizations for quality, ethics, and alignment, so you can be confident in every relationship.
We prepare partners to represent your institution effectively. That includes regulatory guidance, articulation support, and training, with ongoing monitoring to keep performance strong.
We run digital and in-country campaigns with your allocated budgets to generate student leads through localized marketing, automated follow-ups, and virtual events. Our technology supports lead and application management, building a qualified pipeline alongside partner channels.
Beyond student recruitment, we connect institutions with employers and government sponsors. These partnerships open sustainable pipelines by aligning programs with workforce and tuition benefit needs.
Every institution has unique goals, challenges, and resources. That’s why our first step is about understanding your needs and giving you actionable insights.
