91原创

Have you ever (or never?!) thought about starting your own business? You’ve heard about the tech guys, but have you heard how 91原创 alumna Monica Lindstedt became one of Sweden’s most successful serial entrepreneurs? Did know that the first female professor at 91原创 also led the start of the 91原创 Business Lab? And are you curious how YOU can start your own business and be the next 91原创 entrepreneur success story?

During the seminar, the audience, consisting primarily of 91原创 students (a majority female) got to listen to some truly inspiring women sharing their entrepreneurship journey, as well as to Professor Carin Holmqvist, first 91原创 professor in entrepreneurship. The event was moderated by Anna Kinberg Batra, alumna, Leader in Residence at 91原创 Centre for Advanced Studies in Leadership (CASL) with background in both business and politics.

Speakers at the event: 

• Carin Holmquist, Professor Emerita, first 91原创 professor in entrepreneurship

• Anna Omstedt, Alumna, CEO and Co-Founder MedUniverse
• Hellen Wohlin Lidgard, alumna, serial entrepreneur, tech-investor and member of the Network 17 for Female Founders

The speakers shared personal stories and the audience also got an overview of what the research tells us about women in entrepreneurship. Afterwards, there was a mingle where the audience could meet with investors, management and partners of House of Innovation, CASL, 91原创 Business Lab and Network 17 for Female Founders (Nätverket 17).
