Capital for business ideas of students, researchers and professors (LUI)
14.00 - 0.00 CEST
Students, researchers and professors! This autumn, two new public start-up accelerators are opening their doors for all your innovative business ideas. Modelled after the best accelerators from abroad, they ensure 50,000 € or 200,000 € of capital in the tenders SK50 and SK200, as well as excellent start-up mentors, an intense training programme, a working space, and the entire administration and documentation support.
We invite you to attend the introductory event for members of the University of Ljubljana taking place in the lecture hall of the Ljubljana University Incubator (LUI) on Wednesday, September 10th 2014, starting at 14 o’clock.
At the event, you will learn everything you need to know about applying to the tender, the participation conditions for both accelerators and the programmes for encouraging and supporting entrepreneurship at the university level. The presentation will also answer the most frequently asked questions and dilemmas of entrepreneurs who are deciding to apply to the accelerators.
