Entrepreneurship: Learning How To Fail To Succeed
In this STARTIMPULSE online you will have a first-hand experience to learn about entrepreneurship and business planning with Professor Alex Osterwalder.
Entrepreneurship is a profession that can be learned, just like you can learn how to become a surgeon. It requires a triple effort.
Firstly, you need to study the foundations like anatomy and physiology. In entrepreneurship, that's business models and value propositions.
Secondly, you need to learn the operating procedures. In entrepreneurship, that's how to shape and test business ideas.
And thirdly, you need to practice, practice, and practice. For doctors, that's the internships. In entrepreneurship, that's joining startups. You'll look stupid a thousand times until you look smart. It's hard but rewarding - if you make it through.
