☕️ We have found the secret to joy in life - inspiration!

💪 Our last Networking Breakfast for the semester offered not only inspiration, but also a strong dose of energy.

☀️ Vera Wolf, UU-alumna and not-your-typical entrepreneur, talked about the challenges of setting up her art studio and mindfulness classes. Part of her journey has also been the many insights about herself, from gaining trust in her own stregth to sharing kindness and energy with her participants.

🌱 Join our community of entrepreneurs at Uppsala University, check our coming events, and be prepared for many suprises and opportunities!

Join us for our final Networking Breakfast of the spring and meet Vera Wolf, Uppsala University alumna.

8 May | Breakfast included

After moving from the Netherlands to Sweden, Vera decided to build a company from scratch, without any prior experience in entrepreneurship. At this breakfast, she will share her personal journey, the challenges she faced, and the lessons she learned along the way. A founder story for anyone curious about entrepreneurship, innovation, or taking the first step after (or during!) your studies.

Today we joined UIC’s Spring Party, a great opportunity to connect, catch up and see what’s currently taking shape in Uppsala’s innovation ecosystem.

There were awards, conversations and plenty of positive energy, with startups recognised for sustainability, team development, tech and impact, plus a Public Choice Award voted for by the audience.

Especially nice to meet students and researchers from we’ve supported, now moving forward through UIC’s programmes. We caught up with teams from Vips, Nornir Labs, Aidmix and Afterimagery, among others.

👏 Congratulations to Afterimagery, led by Prof. Emily Holmes, for taking home the Public Choice Award. And a shout‑out to Pixlbio, a UU spin‑out selected as UIC Selected this year.

Uppsala may be modest in size, but there’s a lot being built here, steadily and with purpose 💙💛

Thanks 😊
