On the 25th of March, 2023, GHASKA in collaboration with the Sejong International Exchange Institute organized an Entrepreneurship & Internship Seminar for GHASKA members as well as other interested participants at the Paldal Hall, Ajou University in Suwon. This seminar was in the hybrid format and brought together more than 50 participants joining both in person and via online video conferencing.
The seminar focused on a variety of topics such as starting up a business, visa acquisition for business and start-up purposes, and obtaining paid internships in certain countries of interest among others. These discussions were led by various facilitators including Nihat Khalizade, Director of Gangnam Global Village Center as well as Heesun Kim and Victoria Arfeldt, both of Global Internship Service, Inc. Participants got the opportunity to ask a variety of questions to the facilitators in order to get a better understanding of the processes required as well as obtain clarity on the topics discussed.
The seminar was rounded up with participants partaking in a brief quiz as well as filling in a participation survey. The general view of participants was one of approval and appreciation for the seminar being organized on an area that is of great interest to both students and non-students alike and called for the seminar to be held on a regular basis for the benefit of GHASKA as a whole as well as individual members.
