These entrepreneurship summer schools will be organized every year for students from all FORTHEM alliance universities.
In 2023 it will take place at the University of Agder (UiA), Norway, between August 21 and 25.
If you are interested in entrepreneurship, crowdfunding and want to live a Norwegian summer with a lot of activities, don't miss this intensive week where you can learn about crowdfunding models and markets, as well as the development of skills for planning and developing campaigns. All theoretical topics are then applied to a business and crowdfunding campaign that you will develop throughout the course, under close supervision and guidance. After the intensive one-week course, you will have digital supervision and present your plans digitally.
In addition to the academic experience, there will be social activities such as a barbecue, guided tour of the city and dinner with the Dean and Rector.
Funding: UiA covers the content, the social program, lunches, a couple of dinners and there will be a free homestay option for some students.
There is a FORTHEM scholarship available for 3 selected students from each FORTHEM partner university. Click here to see the details. You can contact your local FORTHEM office forthem@uv.es for information about travel and individual grants.
