Student Entrepreneurship Week 2022 (SEW 2022)

As a society, BIOMEHS is responsible to provide the students from the biomedical engineering community with beneficial and splendid activities throughout their studies. As we know, students are the entrepreneurs of tomorrow, where their entrepreneurial plans and activities will shape the society of the future. In line with the UTM tagline “Innovative, Entrepreneurial, Global'', young entrepreneurs play a dominant role in the process of creative destruction by recognizing new opportunities and turning them into business ideas and by bringing new technologies and concepts into real commercial use, which is especially important in periods of economic crisis. Through this entrepreneurship event, students will get the opportunity to broaden their horizons and gain knowledge about entrepreneurship. Furthermore, it is an opportunity to expose students to the reality of online business which is one of the mediums for them to promote their products.

To be precise, this program intends to congregate all students not only from the School of Biomedical Engineering and Health Science but also students from various schools in different faculties in UTM, ranging from first-year to senior students in a 4-weeks duration event to give them chances to examine the entrepreneurial spirits of the students. Apart from these, a virtual entrepreneur event can be a great platform for students to develop their soft skills that revolve around leadership, communication, and self-esteem. Hence, this program indeed will give a huge positive impact on the participants' skills of entrepreneurship as well as soft skills to ensure a better society in the future.
