Hannah W., business founder:
The Seniorexperts program at my university is an extremely valuable offer.
The program gave me the opportunity to work with an experienced mentor who not only significantly deepened my understanding of business processes, but also supported me in balancing my studies and self-employment.
His in-depth know-how and practical advice were extremely valuable for the development of my business.
This experience has contributed significantly to my professional progress.
I can recommend the exchange to anyone who wants to develop their personality and ideas with determination and a positive effect.
