Focus on entrepreneurship

Today's focus was on entrepreneurship. The presenter during the morning was Arnis Saukas from Stockholm School of Economics in Riga. We started the day by watching a movie about the development of the computer industry. After the movie we discussed about entrepreneurship. The discussions focused on the challenges of being an entrepreneur and setting up an own business.

In the afternoon we went by car to the neighboring town Sorø were we visited an entrepreneur in his business. The place we visited is called "Emils chokolade" and it was Emil himself who welcomed us. He is a graduate of the University of Southern Denmark and he started his own business, a chocolate shop.

The atmosphere during the visit was nice and friendly. While Emil presented his business idea we were served diverse diverse products from his shop: Champagne, Brownies, Hot Chocolate, Pralines, etc. Useless to say that everyone liked the visit a lot.

Thank you Emil for a great afternoon in Sorø!
