The Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship (ECE) transformed the eleventh floor of the tower to a paradise for entrepreneurs. <\/p>\n<p> None less than prime minister Mark Rutte performed the official opening of the Startup Campus on Saturday. In the melting pot of young, starting entrepreneurs and experienced big corporates, studying, enterprise, and growth will be combined. \u201cEverybody is welcome here; we do not differentiate in level of education, background or age. Most importantly, you should be ambitious and enterprising,\u201d says manager Jochem Cuppen (24).<\/p>\n<p>  <b>Prime location<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  No failure can be blamed on the facilities: stylish modern furniture, spacious office and meeting rooms with a lot of light and a wonderful view over the Rotterdam harbor and the city itself. Mimicking the Google headquarters in California, the arrangement is playful and daring. For example, there will be a slide to the tenth floor, and it features a meeting room with swings for seats. Top that with the presence of a Starbucks branch, a bar, sports room, showers and table football, the renters will be provided with any and all luxuries.<\/p>\n<p>  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/ASSETS\/em\/EM\/Nieuws_2014\/startup-campus-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"555\" height=\"375\"><\/p>\n<p> <i>Meeting room with swingchairs<\/i><\/p>\n<p>  <b>Development of young talent<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  However nice the \u2018dress\u2019 of the Startup Campus might be, performance and development are of course the most important. Young entrepreneurial talent will be prepared for a prosperous start of their careers. \u201cYou definitely should not see us as a real estate developer. We are more of an educator: we support students who are talented and ambitious, and we have special \u2018top sports programs\u2019 for them. Under intensive supervision they can combine enterprising with finishing their education,\u201d according to Cuppen. <\/p>\n<p>  <b>Strong ties to the university<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  Although the Startup Campus is a place for entrepreneurs of all plumage, the ties to the EUR are certainly important. Cuppen: \u201cOne of our spearheads is promoting the Erasmus University as the university for entrepreneurs. Over here, we want to market the substantial knowledge which is produced in the EUR and incorporate it into society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>  The eleventh floor is currently rented out, but outsiders with interests in enterprising are welcome every first Tuesday of the month. On those days, the ECE organizes a Day@theCampus, where listening to prominent speakers \u2013 like the former Commander of Armed Forces Dick Berlijn -, interesting activities and networking are central.
