Ti Communication

What Ti Communication does

Ti Communication GmbH is a privately-held German training and consulting firm founded in 2000 in Regensburg, operating in the intercultural competence, leadership development, agile transformation, and international talent acquisition markets. It serves large enterprises and multinational corporations — predominantly German and European industrial, automotive, semiconductor, energy, and logistics players — through a network of 80+ intercultural experts covering approximately 130 countries, with a stated 1,000+ years of cumulative training and consulting experience. The firm combines three delivery formats: (1) customized in-person, virtual, and blended workshops and multi-phase activation programs; (2) individual and team coaching including an "Erlebniswerkstatt" experience workshop format; and (3) an enterprise-licensed e-learning catalog of 50+ interactive courses for intercultural business situations, each averaging 70-90 minutes.

The company's core technology assets are an e-learning platform with LMS integration and proprietary diagnostic and navigation tools, most notably the Cultural Landkarte (Cultural Map) digital compass, the nine-dimension Readiness Check for international recruitment, and the Country Navigator. Structured flagship programs — the Agility Activation Journey and the six-month Leadership Activation Journey — package analysis, strategy, and implementation into longer-duration engagements, while the International Talent Services offer formalizes a four-phase methodology (Readiness Check, Matching, 30-60-90 Onboarding, Longterm Integration) that extends the firm beyond training into talent-acquisition and retention consulting.

The business model is overwhelmingly project- and license-based professional services with quote-based pricing and minimal public rate transparency. Revenue streams include training and workshops, coaching, e-learning licenses (individual and enterprise subscription, annual billing cadence), strategic consulting and organizational development engagements, and event participation fees. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven: direct enterprise outreach supplemented by EXPERTS Input workshops, content marketing via a 46+ page blog, partner referrals, and association channels (WE-Fair under the BMZ, InterGest, Chinaforum Bayern, BVMW, THI Business School). Pricing is not publicly disclosed, with free virtual short seminars used as a top-of-funnel hook and full programs priced on request.
