Learning outcomes:
At the end of the session participants will:
Understand what the initial steps to becoming an entrepreneur are. Many students, nowadays, dream to open their own business/startup but there are several questions crossing their minds:
– Am I ready to make this step?
– Should I gain some industry experience before launching my business?
– How do I find the right idea?
– What do I need to do and who can help me?
These are just some of the questions that as an aspiring entrepreneur you might be thinking of. Kevin will share his experience in building a startup and two associations in the field of Education Technology.

Kevin Giorgis is an Italian entrepreneur born in 1997. He studied Management and Marketing in Bologna and at the University of California Riverside. During his stay in California, he learnt more about the startup industry and became passionate about it. Coming back to Europe, he pursued his Master’s In Strategy and International Management at the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland, completed two internships in corporates and decided that entrepreneurship was more his cup of tea. That is when the journey to become a startupper began.
First, he founded Edu Enhancement, an app built to track students’ level of engagement and provide continuous feedback to the professors in order to make continuous improvements in the learning experience. After 8 months and after being accelerated in Israel, the team pivoted to Wyblo. They changed the target and readapted the product to address the professional training industry.
Wyblo raised a pre-seed round via a Business Angel, and they are raising their seed round.
