ArcadaES is up and running!

Hi everyone!

Arcada Entrepreneurship Society’s (External link) first couple of months has started of with a sprint! Wow, we are really glad to see and hear all the good feedback and support that we have got from students, alumni, staff and even the board of the school.

We have had the opportunity to do a lot of fun things. We started of with Slush (External link) that was arranged by AaltoES (External link) in Kaapelitehdas (External link) 13-14 November. We got to meet a lot of great people from AaltoES, HankenES (External link), StartUp Sauna (External link), AppCampus (External link) and many more companies and institutions. We learned that the Startup scene is growing super fast and that no one of us wants to miss the ride!

We arranged our first event 27 of November and it was a huge success we want to thank everyone who participated and helped us! Especially Stig Gustavsson who is the former chairman and now and honorary member of the Arcada foundation’s board. And also the alumni Andreas from LevelUp (External link) and Martin from Milk + Chocolate (External link) who were willing to come and show their support to us.

We have some great things going on already for 2014 so stay tuned! Our next event will be in the beginning of January so make sure you are following us on Facebook (External link) so you now when it happens!

While you are waiting for the next event, sign up for EC Vilnius (External link) or Rotary Startup Challenge (External link)! We really hope that we can see as many teams as possible at both competition representing Arcada (External link) and ArcadaES (External link) open group on Facebook (External link) . We are here to help you so remember that you can grab anyone of us at anytime and ask for advice! We also have an where you can discuss stuff around this so check it out!

So now work hard and do you finals well and we can all go a well deserved Christmas holiday!
