Two awards for Student Experience: Best Environmental Management and Best Student Coliving

On Wednesday 14 October, Student Experience — the student housing brand of The Experience Net — took home two awards in London. Founder Johan Verweij and CFO Duco collected the GSL Award for Best Environmental Management in person, while Marketing Specialist Valentina accepted the Best Student Coliving award at the Coliving Awards.

What are the Global Student Living Awards?

The GSL Awards are based exclusively on direct feedback from hundreds of thousands of students around the world every year. With no written nominations and no 'expert' judges, the GSL Awards are uniquely credible and highly prized.

Data for the awards is collected through the GSL Index. Registration for universities and student accommodation providers to take part in the next wave of the GSL Index is now open.

A third win for Best Environmental Management

Winning Best Environmental Management for the third time, after four consecutive years of nominations, makes this recognition especially meaningful.

At Student Experience, sustainability sits at the heart of everything we do. Beyond creating and managing eco-friendly student housing, we aim to inspire students to adopt more sustainable habits and make a lasting, positive impact on the world around them. This award is a great motivation to keep pushing forward and making student living greener, one step at a time.

What are the Coliving Awards?

The Coliving Awards celebrate innovation and excellence in the coliving industry. By recognising pioneering concepts in areas such as architecture, design and community management, the awards shine a spotlight on organisations that are shaping the future of shared living.

The awards aim to inspire new ideas, encourage innovation and contribute to the growth of the coliving industry. Winning the Best Student Coliving award is a fantastic recognition of our commitment to creating inspiring spaces where students can live, connect and thrive.
