Curious about entrepreneurship, or even thinking of starting your own business? As a Chalmers student, you can now get free, personal coaching to help you take the next step.

Entrepreneurship at Chalmers is about more than starting a company. It’s a way of thinking and working that applies in many different settings – it can be in student projects, within large organizations (intrapreneurship), or in initiatives with societal or environmental goals.

Open to all students

The coaching is open to students from all programmes and disciplines. You are welcome regardless of whether you are just exploring a challenge or problem you find interesting, have a concrete idea you want to develop or already have your first customers and want guidance on business strategy.
