We Empower Entrepreneurs and Guide Them Towards Success
Our Mission
Our mission is to promote entrepreneurship by providing personalised entrepreneurship learning and guidance to budding entrepreneurs. This mission was born out of our own entrepreneurial struggles and the desire to enable more people to become self-sufficient through entrepreneurship.
Our Vision
Our vision is a world where no idea is inhibited. By focusing our efforts on personalised entrepreneurship learning in a scalable and easily accessible format, we aim to address issues of unemployment and underemployment among youths and young adults, as well as increase their entrepreneurial skills — skills that are much needed in the 21st century.
Success Through Shared Values
Whenever we’re stuck, we turn to our guiding principles and values
A Resilient Mind
We value proactive and persistent work, as well as being courageous in approaching new scenarios. We grow from our mistakes and focus on long-term progress. We adapt, make meaning of hardships and continue moving forward, because we know that persistence beats everything. Resilience is our mantra.
Fearless Communication
By Fearless Communication, we mean active, transparent, clear and culture-agnostic communication. We are committed to a supportive work environment, enabling our team members to grow with our business. We believe in the power of continuous, constructive feedback as Fearless Communication is our foundation of trust.
A Warm Heart
We don’t have all the right answers and we don’t claim we do. We don't expect anyone to be perfect. We embrace empathy to understand needs, identify challenges, and discover solutions. We treat everyone with respect and value everyone in our community. Our differences drive innovation, creative solutions, smarter decisions and better performance.
The story of how it all started...
The idea of Edventures first came to Alexander in 2017 when he was working as an entrepreneurship coach at grass-root level in Sweden. Recognising the struggles of aspiring entrepreneurs, he identified the absence of tailored guidance and continuous support as a common challenge for early-stage entrepreneurs. With the changing labour market and values of younger generations, job opportunities have decreased, further compounded by the rise of automation, restricting options for youths entering the workforce.
And how it's going right now...
The desire for self-employment and financial independence is on the rise, yet existing support for this journey is either flawed or absent. Edventures was founded to bridge this gap, providing a dynamic solution tailored to empower young minds on their entrepreneurial paths. Our journey since the initial idea in 2017 has been a process of discovery and adaptation. We've repositioned ourselves and started 2024 with the launch of our prototype and the introduction of our Earlybird Community for budding entrepreneurs – and we're just getting started.
Meet the Team
As the driving force behind Edventures, our diverse team spans across two continents, representing six distinct ethnicities. With a collective fluency in over 10 languages, we bring a wealth of cultural perspectives and understanding to our work, fostering innovation and collaboration on a truly international level.
