Entrepreneurship

The power of entrepreneurial skills
various figures coming out of mobile, asking with hand raised and on apartment building.

Coming up with creative solutions, inspiring others or showing perseverance. All entrepreneurial skills that everyone can put to good use. That doesn't mean everyone should become an entrepreneur. But it does mean that you look at the world in a creative and innovative way. Daring to do things just a little differently. These are skills that are becoming increasingly important. Also within education, research and our university as a whole.

Don't throw them away, clean them. WEAR's sneaker cleaners give your shoes a good refresh so they can last for years to come.

You can also buy shoes at WEAR. And these are "refurbished" sneakers. These are used sneakers that they refurbish completely.
