Do you have the ambition to bring your innovation to society? Or do you want to start your own company? But don't know where to start? A good starting point is to look at the events that Radboud University & Radboud UMC have to offer!
Supporting young entrepreneurs is our passion! As business coaches, we are always available to help you turn your innovative idea into an impactful startup.
You are more than welcome to work on your startup at our office. Our co-working space has flexible working stations and is open Monday to Friday from 8.30 AM till 5.30 PM.
When you reach the stage that you start collecting capital, you can turn to us for help. There are several vouchers and loans you can apply for as a starting entrepreneur, and we can help you apply for them. Curious to see what’s out there?
When you’re starting up your business, it’s good to have contacts. To get to know fellow entrepreneurs or people who might want to help you with, or even invest in, your company! This is why networking is so important. When following our tracks and visiting our events, you will automatically connect to other entrepreneurs and experts who can help you.
As a researcher, it is important to share your work so that others can build on it. By publishing your research, you can make an impact with innovative innovations and ideas. In doing so, it is wise to consider different ways of sharing knowledge, such as starting a business or collaborating with suitable partners for further development, while ensuring that your knowledge is well protected. We can help you finding the best route for you.
“Last year during a TEDtalk in Arnhem, one of the speakers introduced me to The Launch and from there it all went very fast. I reached out to the business coaches and signed up for the IMPROVE programme. Giving pitches is what I fear and love most. My ultimate tip is: “be yourself during a pitch, it’s cliché but it distinguishes me from more hardcore business people. I always stay close to myself and say what I feel.”
