In Fireside Chat 2 Prof. Panayiotis Ketikidis, co-Founder of HeBAN and Chairman of South-East European Research Center (SEERC), will discuss about “The Science of Success: The Altuntas Start-up Compass Theory”. Many universities have developed their business programme curriculum and the teaching of entrepreneurship methodology to align with the Startup Compass Theory, which proposes nine steps an entrepreneur has to consider: from wannapreneurship to innovation, on to entrepreneurship and marketing and sales, and then to branding to institutionalisation and franchising, finally progressing to leadership and angel investment. While the inclusion of this approach in educational programmes and workshops attests to its success, it has only recently been evaluated and scientifically validated. In this fireside chat, Prof. Panayiotis Ketikidis will present findings about the applicability of the Startup Compass Theory.

Ημερίδα του Ελληνικού Δικτύου Επιχειρηματικών Αγγέλων (HeBAN)

Tην Πέμπτη 14 Ιουλίου, 2016 το Ελληνικό Δίκτυο Επιχειρηματικών Αγγέλων (HeBAN) που εδρεύει στη Θεσσαλονίκη μαζί με την Αλεξάνδρεια Ζώνη Καινοτομίας και τον Δήμο Θεσσαλονίκης διοργάνωσε ημερίδα με θέμα «Eπιχειρηματικοί Άγγελοι και Ευκαιρίες για τις Startups: Κίνητρα για τους Επενδυτές».

Χαρακτηριστικά ο κ. Άγγελος Αγγέλου σύμβουλος επιχειρήσεων και ιδρυτής της Angelou Economics & International Accelerator τόνισε ότι:

«Η κρίση είναι η καλύτερη εποχή για να ξεκινήσει μία νέα εταιρεία, γιατί εάν πετύχει σε συνθήκες κρίσης μπορεί να θεωρείται πραγματικά επιτυχημένη και, η αμερικανική αγορά, είναι η καταλληλότερη αγορά για τους τους φιλόδοξους νέους επιχειρηματίες, γιατί αν πετύχεις στην Αμερική, μπορείς να επιτύχεις παντού».
