Exclusive talent network
of like-minded people
Future Entrepreneurs of Denmark is a multidisciplinary talent network offering university students and new graduates the possibility to explore the world of entrepreneurship. In collaboration with experienced entrepreneurs and top-tier companies in Denmark, we have designed an 8-week program that introduces FED talents to the key steps of creating a startup: ideation, prototyping, business strategy, sales and marketing, funding, and legal aspects, while improving their soft skills!
We provide a toolbox of necessary knowledge, practical experience, and a multidisciplinary network. Working in teams, FED talents can test their business ideas or join a potential founder and learn what it takes to turn ideas into reality. In this way, we aim to grow the interest in entrepreneurship among young talents and facilitate the development of new start-ups that will help solidify innovation and entrepreneurship in our society.
FED is open once a year, during Spring semesters. Each year we select 45 of the most motivated and talented students with diverse educational backgrounds to join the FED Talent Network.
Recruitment for FED 2024 has now been closed.
We look forward to opening it again in January 2025!

During events FED talents will be working in teams, where they will be able to practise entrepreneurial tools and apply acquired knowledge from each workshop.
Networking
Meeting new, like-minded people from various backgrounds is a big part of the FED Program. We even talk about the importance of networking and how to do it in one of our first events. Apart from networking with peers, our talents will have an opportunity to meet successful entrepreneurs, partners and mentors, who will guide them through the process of building a start-u and gaining new skills..
Activities
With team-oriented and learning-by-doing approach, FED Program provides valuable knowledge and necessary tools for every entrepreneur to be. Our events give talents an opportunity to experiment with their own business ideas and build upon the knowledge gained during the program.
