I need
an idea.
So you have the right mindset and passion, but the next big thing just hasn’t hit you yet?
I need
a team.
You have a brilliant idea or a product, but maybe not the skills to take it further? Or maybe you just want to brainstorm with people?
What LUTES does?
LUTES is a student-driven entrepreneurship society based at Skinnarila Campus in LUT University.
We are on a mission to drive student entrepreneurship and professional development on the regional level with our events, community and programs. Together with other entrepreneurship societies and country level startup initiatives we aim to build a strong startup ecosystem in Finland.
Learn. Network. Build.
Learn. LUTES arranges various entrepreneurship events throughout the year. In events like Taste of Success and Takeoff, our biggest event of the year, you’ll learn from the most experienced entrepreneurs and get to participate in case workshops. LUTES also arranges a Startup Excursion, where you get to visit the offices of the hottest startups of Finland. LUTES is bringing its most ambitious event concept, On Thin Ice, to life in 2021.
Network. LUTES is all about bringing talented individuals, startups and future founders together. Team Building by LUTES achieves just this. Lutes is also expanding its community by establishing a co-working space at campus at the beginning of 2021. Meet new people, engage in a community of encouragement and showcase your skills to participate in promising startups of the area.
Build. During Forward, a free 7-week program, ideas are taken into action with the help of professional coaches and mentors along with the tools you need in order to build your new startup. Day1 mentoring program provides promising new student startups money grants and a valuable network of mentors and investors in order to take their business to the next level.
