Setup of the program

The program consists of a series of workshops together with other participants and ends with a dragon's den that gives advice and support on how you can take the project further. Lantmännen offers business development and / or prototype development for the best projects.

What happens during the program?

The program includes exercises in sales technology, business development, presentation technology, IPR, team development - but also discussions and inspirational lectures. The program is run by experienced business coaches, employees at Lantmännen and hand-picked external contractors.  

During the workshops, you will have the opportunity to work through your idea and sharpen your business model - and lay a good foundation for future business. You will also be able to test your idea on the other participants. Who knows - maybe there is a future customer, supplier or partner in the bench next to it?

"I loved getting to learn new tools that can be used in other contexts as well."
