Grow your business at the Business Club Event
An afternoon and evening packed with masterclasses, networking and learning, specially designed for student entrepreneurs who want to move forward.

What's on the agenda?
The program is divided into two parts. In the afternoon, everything revolves around building knowledge. You are choosing the the sessions that are most relevant to your business. In the evening, the focus shifts to networking and conversations. The program is available in both Dutch and English.
