Collaborator & Tutor
2013 - 2016
EmprendING is a group of enthusiasts who seek to generate a new entrepreneurial culture. Every year more than 200 people assist to the course, who would like to set up a start up but do not know how to do it; people with ongoing projects that need a network to empower them or simply those who will listen, because they know that inside those four walls new stories, phrase or images can be born, and those may inspires an idea that can help change the world some day. In this scheme, I work as a tutor, sharing from my knowledge and personal experience.
