The closing ceremony, held at the headquarters of the University-Business Foundation, ADEIT, served to acknowledge the students' effort and reaffirm the importance of entrepreneurship in the university environment. This edition has stood out as the most requested to date, demonstrating the growing interest of students in business culture.
“"We can clearly speak of success, with a record number of applications and highly valued faculty by the students. It is a testament to the program's appeal and the quality of both its content and its board, composed of entrepreneurs who bring their real-world experience to the classroom."
A representative from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Universities emphasized that the course allows theoretical knowledge to have a real impact on society and the productive fabric. For his part, the rector of the Universitat de València has given an excellent evaluation of the program, highlighting its usefulness in bringing business reality closer to students after 27 editions.
This edition also marked the end of the tenure of one of the program's academic directors, who led two editions and contributed decisively to its evolution. This official expressed that directing the program has been an enriching experience, as it fosters not only entrepreneurial initiative but also commitment, ethics, and social responsibility.
The 'Who can be an entrepreneur?' program maintains its essence based on experiential learning, combining classroom sessions with company visits and complementary activities. Participants have worked on key aspects such as communication, value proposition, team building, and business models. The president of the Social Council of the Universitat de València highlighted that they will continue to offer training and resources to encourage students to consider the entrepreneurial adventure as a path for professional development.
Since its creation, 'Who can be an entrepreneur?' has consolidated itself as one of the longest-running initiatives of the Business Culture Chair, with over 1,100 students trained and nearly 190 entrepreneurs and executives participating. The involvement of prominent business leaders has been key to consolidating a model that today relies on a board composed of over 50 companies committed to promoting business culture and developing young talent.
