Description

I’m a PhD student within entrepreneurship from Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg. I’m currently conducting research on Swedish business incubation initiatives in Uganda, South Africa and Botswana. On the 24th of October this year I'm coming to Cape Town to meet entrepreneurs and other people involved in entrepreneurial initiatives such as Afriveristy. My idea is to compare Afriversity with other initiatives in Uganda and Botswana to understand more about how entrepreneurs experience those initiatives.
When I’m not pursuing my PhD, I also work as the school manager (responsible for the running operations) at a masters education in entrepreneurship focused on life science called Göteborg International Bioscience Business School (GIBBS).I have previously had my own start-up company in Sweden and also worked for the UN in Ethiopia.
I'm very interested in talking to entreprenurs within any field who are connected to Afriveristy and if you think it would be interesting to talk to me I wonder if you have time to meet me at some point during my short stay (Oct 24 to Oct 28). I hope we can share ideas and experiences about entreprenurship.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Kristina Henricson

Dear all,

I'm finally back in a dark and rainy Sweden. Just wanted to thank you all for your time and sharing your ideas and thoughts with me. It has been fantastic in so many ways and very valuable!

Thank you!

Let's keep in touch and hope to see you again soon.

Best regards,
Kristina

Welcome to Africa and Afriversity Kristina! Congrats on your research project! Very interesting indeed to learn from you.

I hope you will be able to meet as many Afripreneurs as possible on your trips, and share your findings with the members here when you complete your project (or before in snippets of experience when meeting people).

If you are not able to meet Afripreneurs in real life, I hope you can meet on skype or phone to maximise your research. Talk to Athan to see how you can co-ordinate a group meeting maybe that we are planning soon.

Everyone: book your session with Kristina whilst she is on the continent, and take the opportunity to meet a well traveled and socially experienced Swedepreneur! :)

Thank you Thorgeir!

I'm looking forward to meet everyone in only a couple of weeks and I'm sure we will be able to share experiences and knowledge from our common field.

And to the Afripreneurs: please contact me if you have some time to meet between Oct 24 and Oct 28!
