CHIVE is a brand new project focusing on intro-ducing students to entrepreneurialism and a new career path besides employment in a big com-pany. To achieve this there are different activities throughout the year. It starts at CHARM with an inspirational fair, where students can buzz with entrepreneurial stars and masterminds behind newly started companies. Once the entrepre-neurial spark is ignited it is followed up with more tangible tips and guidance as well as a chance to acquire your own personal mentor. The final step as a fully developed entrepreneur is to return to Chalmers for recruitment or inspire and guide new talents.
Do you have an urge to be your own or do you just want a sneak peek in the entrepreneurial world? Pay a visit to CHIVE! It is located in “Lednings-gruppen” and “Valdemar” on the 1st floor of Volvofoajén.
The following pages introduce this year’s attend-ing organisations and associated companies. Visit each of them at CHIVE and be inspired!
