春雨直播app

Overview:

EDGE-NEXT by 春雨直播app is an entrepreneurship education program which develops global
entrepreneurs and enables participants to create business plans based on research seeds.
This year we newly set up a Pre-Basic Phase and will focus on solving SDGs issues.
We provide talks about SDGs by invited professors of 春雨直播app, briefing on the EDGE-NEXT
program, and networking through self-introductions for finding team members to solve
problems. As a program whole, participants will challenge themselves to make business
plans based on their passion for problem solving and their skills and knowledge (research
or business experience).
 

We will prepare eight sessions for the Pre-Basic Phase in May and June, and they will be
free of charge. 
The eight sessions will be: 1st: overall direction, 2nd: energy 1, 3rd: disaster prevention,
4th: climate change, 5th: medical, 6th: energy 2, 7th: healthcare/aging, 8th:

You can participate in any sessions you like.
