It’s made up of three main activities: a training about accounting, finance, marketing, etc. VentureLab offers one-year training which I would recommend to do even during your studies. This is the start-up that I am currently working on.Īrthur: One of the most helpful places for me was VentureLab.

I helped other companies with their website and digital marketing. I didn’t know a lot about it at first, but being in Groningen helped.

Larry Page & Sergey Brin starting Google during the studies in their first step to taking over the world. Mark Zuckerberg founding Facebook at university, in between learning how to drink water.
