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.

Competitions

At SSES we send teams on an annual basis to a number of global competitions that focus on venture creation. Participating in these is an excellent opportunity for you to test your entrepreneurial skills, receive media exposure and expand your network. And, if that was not enough, there is often prize money to be won and of course the chance to travel to the finals.

Anybody is welcome to apply, whether you are a student, alumni, have SSES experience or not.
