As many other have said, this was not a usual academic course where you just need to write down what the lecturer says at the lectures and then go home and memorize stuff for getting good results at the exam.

First of all, I think it was a great idea to invite people from different stages in different companies. Of course some was more interesting than other, but you could snap up something good from every each of the presentations.

Second, I liked how we were forced out of our comfort zones at the lectures and also outside the school. We did activities where you needed to talk, discuss and in a small amount of time cooperate with each other. This made me to socialize and start networking. I also liked the thing with going to two startup meetings. It made me think about networking even more than before and I saw that there are plenty of potential out there for creating great stuff with great people.

Often, we get to know exactly what we need to do in school. Like when you were a kid and you mom and that always told you what to do, you didn’t need to worry about putting up your schedule, because other people were making it for you. This course, was the opposite. It was showing us how the real life works. We won’t have teachers telling us what to do and how to do things if we want to create our own startup. As Serdar mentioned before, you need to listen to yourself and that could be a scary thing to do sometimes. But everyone need to practice on it.

Something that could be improved is the selection of the invited guests. The most interesting guest we had I think was the man from Fyndiq. Because he had gone down that entrepreneurship rode himself and his experiences really touched me. At the same time, it is hard to get that kind of persons to appear. Most of them are pretty busy and might not have the time.

Im now even more enthusiastic about some day becoming a real entrepreneur, with all its good and bad times. I would also like to thank Serdar for the energy and effort he put on the course, and of course all the students.
