TC: Business Hackathon: Discover your purpose

Do you have some business ideas in your mind but don’t feel like starting yet? Is it because you are missing courage or some skills? Or do you simply need the final push and a business plan on the canvas?  30 people from all around Europe had a chance to join us for an intense week full of workshops, and turned ideas into solid business plans, and strangers into great friends!
