It has been 2 weeks since we emailed the participants about the start of the project. And what a rocky 2 weeks those were!<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The goal of the StoryLab is to curate the next generation of entrepreneurs. Therefore, it is not only about the projects but first and for most – about the people behind them. For this reason, in the first week of operating as a project, we focused on getting our cohort started. Our project assistant, Maja, prepared a crash course on Asana and Slack to introduce those as the main tools for this project as they are the industry standard. At this stage, the participants created their project in Asana, joined Slack channels and recorder elevator pitches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In the second stage of the project, week 2, we dedicated two days to workshops. Innitially, they were supposed to be held in-person in the Innovation Lab of School of Journalism, Media and Culture. However, life happened. Both the project lead – David Dunkley Gyimah – and one of the guest speakers – ex head of BBC, Robin Moore – got tested positive for COVID-19. Therefore, Robin\u2019s masterclass got postponed until next week and the workshops were moved to online and were held on Zoom from 10am to 4pm with a lunch break from 1 to 2pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
