Do any of these sound familiar?

  • No idea what to build, but you know you want to build something
  • One idea, but you are not sure if it is worth pursuing
  • Ten ideas, but you cannot decide which one to pick
  • A nagging problem that keeps bugging you

Wherever you are starting from, this session will give you the practical tools to navigate the early stages of ideation.

This event marks the launch of our Startup Essentials series, designed to guide students through the entire startup journey - from initial ideation to pitching and funding. The event is open to everyone, not just students.

Guest Speaker: Erlend from Skriptr
