The YOSHI programme offers you the unique chance to establish your own (online) ‘side hustle’ within 20 weeks and start generating an income. YOSHI will help you test-fly your idea. This means you will learn to validate a product or service with an (online) audience, to determine if there is a market for your solution in order to generate an income. You will learn not only the fundamentals of starting a business but also how to optimise your marketing strategy using tools such as SEO, influencer marketing and AI. You will discover how to start a website, setup other key channels, and how to convert visitors into paying customers. Moreover, you will gain insights into financing and how to grow your business.

Exclusive access for E³UDRES² students

The YOSHI Programme is an extracurricular programme that leverages collaborative online learning, and is open to students across Europe who are part of the E³UDRES² Alliance. It consists of 20-weeks of online sessions taking place on Wednesday evenings, after university hours.
