Centre for Entrepreneurship


CVO can help you in every phase of your entrepreneurship. To develop your entrepreneurial skills, we offer two pathways: the Minor Entrepreneurship, a 20-week programme in which you learn how to set up or further develop your own business, and the Business Development Academy (BDA), where you can further explore and realise your entrepreneurial ideas with guidance and support. These options allow you to work on your future in your own way.
