    Past event: NEXT Lounge – a successful Venture Cup fieldtrip!

    All across the country Venture Cup facilitated the live-streamed NEXT conference, held together with Innovation Lab in Århus on 2nd of April.

    Venture Cup students from Roskilde, Copenhagen, Odense, Århus and Aalborg experienced an impressive line-up of speakers on the subject of new technology and innovative businesses. From Pablos, the hacker, who gave us all a lesson on internet security, to the innovative street-combing procedures by Richard Stomp, the ‘Do-like-nature’ technology by Julian Vincent, with his new generation of hammers imitating the movements of the woodpecker to the exhibition in Århus where we all got to see the newest technology – the show was inspiring and thought-provoking to anyone interested in entrepreneurship.

    Thank you all for an exciting, fun and lovely day! See you the NEXT time?
