Think bigger than of the usual career paths!
You're studying, researching, working on exciting projects … but have you ever wondered what else you could do with your knowledge, your skills or that idea you've had in the back of your mind? What if your degree could lead to more than the obvious next step?
Welcome to ONE LAST PITCH – The Startup Farewell by Startup Port @TUHH! Join us for an afternoon of real founder stories and new connections as we celebrate our TUHH startups preparing to undock and sail for their next chapters.
Here's what YOU can take away from the afternoon:
Get inspired beyond your lecture hall or lab. Discover how people turn knowledge, research and ideas into real impact and what that could mean for your own future.
Learn from people who've actually done it. Hear startup teams pitch their businesses and share a glimpse of the journey behind them. No textbook theories, just real entrepreneurial experiences.
Explore career paths you might not have considered. Whether you're finishing your Master's, doing a PhD or working in research, discover how your expertise could become the starting point for something of your own.
Meet your people. Connect with fellow students, researchers and founders who are curious, ambitious and open to new ideas. Your next collaborator, co-founder or source of inspiration could be right there.
Discover what's happening in the startup scene. Meet special guest teams from the EXIST Women cohort and get a closer look at the opportunities and support available to people who want to turn an idea into action.
Enjoy drinks, snacks and conversations in a relaxed atmosphere.
You have a startup idea? Great. Never considered starting a business? Even better!
No idea needed. No experience required. Just an open mind.
Come to find inspiration for your next career step, get a behind-the-scenes look at real startups and meet people who think beyond the obvious. You might leave with a new perspective on your future or even the first spark of an idea worth pursuing.
