Re-live our Rabobank training kickoff!
Inside our Rabobank training kickoff!
What a fantastic kick-off at the Rabobank in Utrecht of the Investment Readiness Program, that was sold out within 2 weeks. This confirms how many driven female entrepreneurs there are in the Netherlands who are ready to take the next step in their entrepreneurial journey!
Together with the Rabobank, we will train 50 ambitious female entrepreneurs in the cities of Utrecht, Amsterdam and Rotterdam over the next two months. They will go through the Investment Readiness Program and will be prepared to achieve their ambitions with their company.
There will be online and physical training on various funding options, the ambitious women will hear first-hand what elements are taken into account when applying for funding and they will be trained in giving an unforgettable pitch. Laurie Lancee shined bright in her keynote and has given our trainees much to think about and implement. We thank Petra Aben for the inspiring kick-off, as well as Femke van de Water and Celine Steinkamp for a taste of tax wisdom.
A special thank you to Rabobank for making this possible.
