What is Guldräven 2012?
Guldräven 2012 is the only entrepreneurial business idea competition arranged at SSE.
It is organized by Enterprise Day 2012 and SSE Business Lab and takes place at the Stockholm School of Economics in connection with Enterprise Day 2012, with the finals during the April 19th 2012 entrepreneurship fair.
The purpose of the competition is to give young entrepreneurs at SSE the opportunity to develop their creative selves as well as increase their understanding of how one should run a business, all the while competing for the opportunity of a lifetime.
You will be given the chance to compete as an individual or as a group by applying here with your business idea no later than April 12th 2012. A jury will go through and asses your application. On April 17th you will be notified about whether or not you are one of the lucky top five contenders who will pitch your idea in front of the Guldräven 2012 jury.
For those of you familiar with Guldräven, you’ll notice that we’ve changed this years’ edition slightly in order to make the competition more attractive to you. Guldräven 2012 will consist of three parts
- The public speaking lecture
- The information kick-off at the HUB
- The business idea competition
The public speaking lecture will take place on the 7th of March in lecture hall Torsten at SSE and is intended to provide you with the sharpest presentation tools available in order for you to make the best possible impression on the jury during the business idea competition. Exellent rhetorician, former Dutch diplomat to the EU, and founder of the Stockholm Institute of Public Speaking, Mr. Ruben Brunsveld, will hold the lecture.
In mid-March we’ll finally present to you the full extent of the most unique and advantageous opportunity at SSE, Guldräven 2012. This year we wanted to make our kick-off an extra special event and asked our friends at The Hub if we could come hang out in their nice, creative and super central offices. Luckily, they said yes. The Hub really is the ideal spot, we think, to host the kick-off for a business idea competition, since entrepreneurship practically is painted on the walls of the place. The Guldräven 2012 kick-off is an event that you don’t want to miss if you intend to partake in the competition.
We understand if you haven’t fully grasped the awesomeness of the Guldräven 2012 business idea competition quite yet, and it’s ok if you still wonder why you should use the fantastic ideas you have everyday to take the chance, succeed and make a difference. Maybe you think you´re not brave enough.
But then again, what is a ball at the castle…
