Event Series Entrepreneurial Insights
The “Entrepreneurial Insights” event series - with Christian Albert Jacke and guests - provides exclusive insights into the practice of successful entrepreneurs from the Leipzig metropolitan region. In eight events during the summer semester, the “movers” report on their journey - from the initial idea to the established company - and share their experiences on challenges, missteps and success factors.
The lecture series is developed and moderated by Christian Albert Jacke - former Mayor for Economic Affairs of the City of Leipzig, entrepreneur and banker - in cooperation with SMILE, the start-up initiative at Leipzig University.
“Entrepreneurial Insights” offers inspiration, knowledge for networking expertise and a practical reality check for anyone who wants to start their own business. Entrepreneurship requires courage, strategy and perseverance - and that anyone with the right idea and the necessary know-how can take the plunge into self-employment.”
