It's not that common place to start a start-up right out of uni and outside the stereotype of "Stanford dropout turned billionaire", especially in Europe, you don't really see many pushing for that path. Tons of people wanna start a business at some point after uni, but many start by spending a few years in investment banking or consulting first. Entrepreneur First is trying to change that approach, and their graduate program seems to directly attack this.

Since I've applied to EF and am now dealing with sorting out my contract with them and looking to accept the offer, I wanted to talk about EF, where I see it fitting in, and why I think maybe more people should apply and try it.

Thank you for listening!
