The Hokkaido University Institute for the Promotion of Business-Regional Collaboration will be holding a practical program called "Entrepreneurship Workshop" for undergraduate and graduate students.
In this program, entrepreneurship is not simply about acquiring the knowledge needed to start a company, but rather about learning and developing the ability to identify everyday problems, think for oneself, take action, and create new value.
During the program, we plan to invite entrepreneurs and experts who have actually launched startups, as well as guest lecturers from overseas.
Of course, you can participate even if you're not thinking about starting a business. It's perfectly fine if you don't have any ideas or expertise at this point.
If you have the desire to try something new, please join us!
