Entrepreneurship is a broad term, and you can be an entrepreneur in just about any area. Meanwhile, you don’t need to have any type of formal education to be an entrepreneur, but that doesn’t mean you should ignore education entirely.
However, you will have to pick a field to work in and business to start. What to prepare? How to develop new ideas to run the business, and eventually realize them into success? This seminar will address those issues by Kristian Aartun, one experienced expert from an entrepreneur's view of point.
The seminar is financed by the Oslo Kommune, free of charge and will be held in English. All attendees must register online at HERE. The deadline for registration is 22th November.
