Beyond 8’s ‘Voyaging’ Brings Together Global Institutions and Aspiring Learners for a Successful Higher Education Exploration Event
Chennai, July 18, 2026: Beyond 8 successfully hosted ‘Voyaging’, its flagship higher education exploration event, on 18th July 2026 at the Beyond 8 Academic Center, Palavakkam, bringing together learners, parents, mentors, and representatives from some of the world’s leading educational institutions under one roof.
The event witnessed an overwhelming response, with over 100 learners and parents participating throughout the day. Designed to help learners from Grades 9–12 navigate their higher education journey with greater confidence, Voyaging created an interactive platform where attendees could engage directly with admissions representatives, explore academic programmes, understand application processes, and gain valuable insights into international education pathways.
More than 30 leading Indian and international institutions participated in the event, including Arizona State University, Baylor University, Illinois Institute of Technology, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University, Monash University, San Diego State University, Syracuse University, Temple University, Trinity College Dublin, University of California San Diego, University of Nottingham, University of Birmingham, University of Connecticut, University of Leeds, University of Liverpool, along with several other renowned institutions.
Leading Indian institutions, including Ashoka University, FLAME University, Krea University, and O.P. Jindal Global University, participated in the event.
Throughout the event, learners interacted with university representatives through one-on-one discussions, programme consultations, and career guidance sessions. Parents also had the opportunity to better understand evolving global education trends, scholarship opportunities, career prospects, and admission requirements, enabling them to make more informed decisions alongside their children.
In addition to institution interactions, the event featured personalised guidance sessions led by Beyond 8’s experienced mentors, who helped learners identify academic pathways aligned with their interests, strengths, and long-term career aspirations.
Naveen Mahesh, Co Founder of Beyond 8, said:

Seeing learners and parents actively engage throughout the event reinforces our belief that guidance and access play a crucial role in shaping future academic journeys. We are grateful to all participating institutions, our mentors, parents, and learners for making the inaugural edition of Voyaging such a success.”
