Inspiring young graduates at ‘Goodbye, Hello!’​

During the online ‘Goodbye, Hello!’ event of last Friday, five young BK Alumni that are also part of the BK-Launch initiative (Sophie van Riel, Italo de Vroom, Willie Vogel, Andreja Andrejević and Frédérique Sanders) elaborated on their ‘first steps after graduating’ and inspired the recent graduates of our faculty. The young alumni emphasized that BK (Technische Universiteit Delft), for them, is a place where everything is possible.

THE WRAP UP: The Entrepreneurship Week

We are looking back at a successful and inspiring week of events. We kicked-off the week with a lecture by Caro van de Venne, discussed the hot topic of Women in Entrepreneurship and closed off by granting young entrepreneurs to continue their entrepreneurial journey during the Entrepreneurship Awards. Together with Alijd van Doorn, BNA and several guest speakers, we hosted four workshops regarding the topic “How do I start my own design firm?” for a large group of ambitious students. We are sure we have inspired many to develop their good ideas and think like an entrepreneur. Do you want to read more or view the photo’s click here.
