About

We're excited to introduce you to the Entrepreneurship Awards, a transformative program at the prestigious Nyenrode Business Universiteit campus. Our initiative was established to inspire and captivate aspiring entrepreneurs by offering an unparalleled learning experience. Since 1996, our program has evolved into a cutting-edge experience, engaging and inspiring participants from diverse backgrounds.

Our unique curriculum, influenced by the U.S. National Science Foundation's Innovation Corps (I-Corps™) program and the Startup Weekend, equips participants with valuable insights into business strategies, tools, and methods essential for building successful businesses and organizations​.

Our Entrepreneurship Award Workshop is a proven methodology to improve organizational teamwork and problem-solving. It's developed by industry experts to foster entrepreneurial thinking, collaboration, and innovation. The workshop is led by Ger Zwartendijk, a seasoned lecturer in entrepreneurship, and Sebastiaan Hooft, the author of "Redesign: Becoming a Happy, Healthy and Successful Entrepreneur." They provide a comprehensive, engaging learning experience that blends theory and practice.

The workshop starts with icebreakers, followed by team formations, brainstorming sessions, and more interactive activities promoting a fun and collaborative atmosphere. The key highlight is developing a unique startup concept based on assigned keywords, then pitching and discussed among participants.

Our workshops have had a transformative impact on various organizations, from large multinational corporations to fast-growing startups. For example, TKH Group and Energy & Power Solutions have reported increased innovation, improved teamwork, and a greater understanding of the entrepreneurial mindset after participating in our workshop​.

We offer three flexible pricing packages—Basic, Standard, and Premium—starting from €4,000. All packages include a workshop led by our expert facilitators and tailored to your organization's needs and objectives.

The Entrepreneurship Award Workshop has received multiple accolades, endorsements, and positive reviews from leading business universities, industry experts, and participants. This recognition reinforces our credibility and expertise in fostering entrepreneurial thinking and collaboration.

Whether you're an event organizer, a manager, a CEO, or a leader looking to enhance your skills and connect with like-minded individuals, the Entrepreneurship Awards is your answer. We invite you to join us and experience the transformation that our workshops can bring to your team and organization.

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or need more information about our workshops. We look forward to supporting your entrepreneurial journey.
