This is an international opportunity for international students desiring to study/travel abroad in Chile.
Exosphere is introducing the world’s very first Entrepreneurship Boot Camp for Women happening next October in Latin America.
This program is developed in Exosphere, with the sole aim of aspiring female entrepreneurs to work, learn, and be inspired by stories of successful women.
The Athena program will offer aspiring and ambitious female entrepreneurs the prospect to live together in a friendly environment, work and learn from each other, gain valuable experience by successful international women visitors, communicate their ideas, and expose them from diverse points of view.
