As a registered jobseeker with (Arbetsförmedlingen), I was opportuned to meet two members of the esteemed Lund-Kluster Rotaryklubb ( a subsidiary of Rotary International) who sought mentees for their newly started mentoring programme. The aim was to help with networking or help the selected job seekers start their own companies. Interesting isn't it? I was chosen after an interview and immediately assigned a mentor who happened to be one of the main advisors at NyföretagarCentrum Lund. He later introduced me to his colleague for advise regarding marketing. With the help of this group and NyföretagarCentrum, I was able to come up with my fantastic company name which immediately gives one an insight into what my company is all about! I also got help with choosing a logo, company homepage structure/design, product advice...
