The idea behind Start It Smart | Junior events is to inspire and educate the youth (mainly students) on topics such as business, entrepreneurship, personal and professional development. We encourage younger people to work on their ideas and try to accomplish them, gaining new valuable and interesting knowledge, experience and contacts.
That’s why we invite you to our second event (similar to SIStory: Successful Inspirational Story) with the guest-lector Darin Madjarov, who will tell us about the things he learned about/at school and the lessons he got outside school. The event will happen between 17 and 19 o’clock on October 25th, 2014 at Vivacom Art Hall. The day is Saturday, while the place is 1 minute away from the National Theatre “Ivan Vazov”. The event will be free, and you can get your invitation online beforehand.
