This year, Lars Hinrichs was invited to speak at the 29th “Gründerfoyers” forum “Dresden exists”, which was organized by the TU Dresden and entitled "Internet business Web 2.0" – about his own career, entrepreneurship, self employment and the XING platform itself.

The “Gründerfoyers” forum is designed to bring students and academics – along with curious and undecided types – into contact with professionals, consultants, politicians and economists to discuss the subject of self employment.

After his talk, the audience had the chance to speak to Lars in person and we’ve since found out that two new Web 2.0 start-ups have come to life since the event took place. We wish these ventures all the best and every success.
