Liesje GoldschmidtGuestStartup Passport HostHostHow has, uh, the last year been, been for you? You still work for Erasmus Enterprise here in Rotterdam?
I, yeah, I s- said last year that I'm maybe gonna start my own business, but not this year.
Still approximately 500 startups are existing, and 30% stays in the region.
We do it with a super cool and, and, uh, entrepreneurial, fun team, so, um, it was a good year.
And how would you say are students in regards to entrepreneurship right now? Because you hear a lot of graduates that have problems, especially in the business side and, like, finding an entry job.
Do you think that has any influence on entrepreneurship, on people maybe thinking, "Okay, then I will try something on my own"?
So there is a major shift also with the Peter Wennink Report, uh, that, uh, there's a good momentum to start your own business in terms of investments, but also in terms of just finding the right people to, uh, go for it.
So, uh, yes, I definitely think that more students are starting their own business.
