After a successful edition last year, the 5 Flemish universities facilitate a second edition of the Researchpreneurship Mindset Bootcamp, helping you to unlock your entrepreneurial potential.


Why?


Being immersed in entrepreneurial thinking, you will be pushed beyond your comfort zone in order to gain a better insight into your future career. The bootcamp is furthermore a great way to network and get to know like-minded researchpreneurs. Its main aim is to let you walk away with a clearer sense of direction and practical strategies for your next step.

This bootcamp allowed me to discover all aspects of entrepreneurial mindset by being surrounded with people who all share the same mindset. During the 48 hours, we got to know each other very fast, both on professional as personal level. As a result of the good selection procedure, every participant showed great interest and motivation in all topics during the complete 48 hours. This resulted in a very relaxed and comfortable environment to discover the mindset of other participants and speakers and at the same time, discover and develop your own entrepreneurial mindset.

If you are a researcher with entrepreneurial ambitions, but feel those internal doubts holding you back, this bootcamp is a perfect fit for you. Get ready to be taken out of your comfort-zone in a respectful and balanced way.
