Welcome to VOKSEVÆRK, a podcast about entrepreneurship, business development and how you can develop and grow as a young professional.

Your host

josefine andersson

Josefine is a young ambitious entrepreneur and graduate student at Copenhagen Business School. In this podcast, Josefine invites VAEKST-colleagues, entrepeneurs and young professionals to talk about their entrepreneurial journey; anything from failing a business to tech-sales and how to "sell a glass of water".

"As a young professional female in a very male dominated industry, I felt the need for a podcast where I would be able to explore the many topics of entrepreneurship and business development, but from a diversified and casual perspective"

Join us on a causual talk about entrepreneurship and "growing pains".

Episode #1 - Thor Møller

"I'm A bad
Entrepreneur"

In the first episode of VOKSEVÆRK, Josefine invites the co-producer, Thor Møller, in for a talk about "bad entrepreneurship".

As Copenhagen Business School does not offer internships as part of its master's programme International Marketing & Management, Thor embarked on creating his own internship. Il Baffo, as the company was named, did not play out to become a success, although giving him valuable learnings for his future endeavours.
