Startup with purpose

Finding your purpose through entrepreneurship

Description:

We all have a purpose in life. Sometimes we struggle to find it. When you have your diplomas, a good job, financial stability and maybe even a family. Somehow you are not completely happy. There is something missing, and you don’t know how you can change your life and find what is missing.
When you know what your purpose in life is, it gives your life more meaning, joy and it makes it easier to make decisions. It makes you grow as a person and happier during the journey we call life.

During this event 4 young professionals with different backgrounds will share their remarkable stories, courageous life decisions, and how they found their purpose in life through entrepreneurship. A story that you can relate too. Followed by a short interactive workshop that will help you guide towards your purpose in life.
