Do you have an innovative business idea, but do not really know how to turn it into reality? If so, this webinar is well suited for you. During this inspirational masterclass, Fredrik will provide attendees with a profound understanding of the company's rapid transformation from a start-up into a large multinational corporation, as well as share lessons learnt and give practical advice on how young professionals successfully can embark on their very own entrepreneurial journeys. 

Key topics that will be discussed during the webinar include: 

• Entrepreneurial journey - How did VOI so rapidly grow from a start-up into a multinational corporation and success story?

• Start-up perspective - How is an idea most effectively turned into reality, and what is important to keep in mind?

• Internationalisation of the company - How can a business effectively expand across geographical markets, whilst maintaining its core values and business strategy?

• Sustainability - How can VOI, and indeed other start-ups, drive sustainable development in modern society? 

• Lessons learnt - What has Fredrik learnt along the entrepreneurial journey, and what advice does Fredrik want to give to other aspiring entrepreneurs?
