INTERNATIONAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP - Den Bosch

If you are interested in finding out if you are a young entrepreneur, you are invited to come and start your business as part of the International Entrepreneurship minor. You will set up, run and manage a start-up in an international setting. You are expected to show a high level of proactivity and independence in this programme, as these are essential entrepreneurial behaviour characteristics. At the end of this 20-week programme, you will know if you have created a sustainable business.

International Entrepreneurship
You develop a business concept and actually execute it in a team of 5 to 6 students: your Student Company. Together, you look for opportunities in the market, think of a solution and find a service or product that matches the needs of your target audience. Your team will pitch an idea in front of a panel, write a business plan, acquire seed money, purchase and/or sell products abroad and provide a financial overview.

To run your Student Company you need knowledge that you can put into practice. For this reason, you will learn about Law, Finance, Sustainability and Ethics. As a business owner, you will need to explain, convey, convince and persuade – both verbally and in writing. This means communication and sales skills are essential to acquire. As today.

The learning goals of this programme are based on the Entrepreneurship Competence Framework, designed by Entrecomp for the European Union in 2016.

The semester lasts for 20 weeks and is divided into 2 blocks.

Throughout the semester you will work on:

• The Student Company addressing Lean Start-up theories, including Creativity, Marketing and Business Planning
• English Skills for Entrepreneurs
• Leadership
• Intercultural Entrepreneurship

During the first block you will also work on:

• Law for Start-ups
• Entrepreneurial Ethics and Sustainability
• Sales Skills for Entrepreneurs

During the second block you will also work on:

• Finance for International Start-ups
• Online Marketing
