We are a program designed and built by students, for students.
Our sister learning company New Designers provided the foundation for NextEd. We are powered by THUAS and we provide expert guidance in creating your own startup. We offer the possibility to intern or graduate at your own company. You will be provided a working space for 20 weeks, free coaching and 350,- euro sponsorship per month to get you started.
