The FACE of experience with Bermejo & Bautista

In the third episode of RestartUp Kate and her friends begin to realize the difficulties of starting a business idea, which is something Manuel Bermejo, author of ‘Entrepreneurial people, quality people’ and Nea Bautista, co-founder of ‘Chilikids’, can agree upon.

According to Bermejo, fears about entrepreneurship are normal for young Europeans and because of that, this expert believes in including notions about entrepreneurship in school and university education.

Meanwhile, Bautista encourages young Europeans: “if you have a good idea, you need to be brave.” Experience, says this entrepreneur, is acquired equally well regardless of how the business venture turns out.
