The University of the Philippines-Los Banos opens its Entrep Boot camp 2024 on Monday, July 08, with 50 shortlisted participants in attendance.
Now on its third year, the event aims to share its business and managerial expertise to the participants, as well as to further screen its candidates for its Associate’s degree program.
Assistant Professor Rei Chino Pua, lead coordinator of the event, highlighted the outcomes of the seven-day activity which he calls ‘stepwise and systematic.’
“We start with the basic concepts and an introduction to entrepreneurship, then we teach them the importance of generating ideas and innovations based on opportunities and responding to what the society needs in order to provide value and relevance. Then we try to validate them,” Pua said.
All activities are designed to be more immersive and practical so that learners would not remain stuck in lectures and seminars.
Looking forward to expand his circle of friends. –With Rolando Ng III
