The TES EduProgram is an exclusive learning experience designed to educate and inspire student entrepreneurs. Our primary goal is to empower future founders with valuable knowledge and skills as heard from accomplished industry experts - our guest speakers.

Over the course of six weeks, we delve into various entrepreneurship topics, from the art of pitching to start-up finance. Our structured curriculum allows students to gain a more holistic view of building a business.

The events offer interviews and discussions with founders, VCs and members of accelerator programs, allowing students to gain firsthand insights from those successful in the start-up area.

At the heart of our program is the idea of fostering connections among students who share a passion for entrepreneurship. You may even find your Co-founder or CTO in this room of like-minded individuals!
