Currículo

Barcelona Spring 2016

El Founder Institute ofrece un curriculum semanal de sesiones constructivas de empresas, diseñadas para ayudar a emprendedores a pensar y trabajar cada aspecto de su negocio, desde la idea inicial al modelo de facturación. Cada sesión está liderada por tres CEO / Mentores, quienes comparten sus opiniones únicas y muchas veces diferentes sobre un tema. Los Founders que participan en el programa tienen tareas para poder ayudar a construir aspectos clave de sus empresas entre las sesiones que se completan en seminarios con sus compañeros.
