The series of events is meant to bring to the audience inspiration, practical tools and testimonials of people who went through the journey from an idea to their own business. Get inspired by real stories of women entrepreneurs who come together to share their experiences and discuss the current challenges and opportunities. Get hands on practical tools to convert your idea into business potential. Get a guiding map through the rich ecosystem and offer that Bern has at innovators’ disposal. And much more... with special attention to the challenges that specifically women face. Even though this is a program dedicated to support female innovators, we encourage people of all genders to join.
Members of universities, universities of applied sciences, research institutes, alumni and innovators interested in entrepreneurship are welcome to join.
The events will be in English.
The program is organized by the University of Bern.
