Together the five of us have established SSES, our joint school devoted to offering our students education, training and inspiration in applied entrepreneurship. So, if you are a student of ours: a special welcome! If not, check out our events and seminars.

Seminars

We love to pick exciting brains. For that purpose we regularly invite interesting individuals to share inspirational stories, talk about their latest idea or to address a particular topic.

These seminars vary in duration, but are generally offered in a one to two hour format and are open to everyone from our member schools, including former SSES students. The number of seats are strictly limited, which is why you need to register or apply for a spot well in advance.
