The third and fourth year students of the Faculty of Economics of the University of Banja Luka had the opportunity to participate in a two-day workshop "Living and Working in BiH", held in Mostar on 6-7th March 2020. The aim of the workshop was to encourage and develop students' entrepreneurial ideas as well as their networking with colleagues from several public universities in BiH. The students were addressed by Mr. Sven Petke, Director of "Konrad Adenauer" Foundation in BiH, discussing the importance of developing an entrepreneurial mindset among young people. Additionally, students had the opportunity to hear entrepreneurs' experiences of doing business in BiH and the challenges they faced. However, the most important part of the event was the presentation of students' business ideas after which they could receive feedback from the audience, as well as ideas for improving the product and/or service. The Faculty of Economics in Banja Luka was represented by three teams of students who developed their business ideas during two business elevator pitching sessions as part of the subject Entrepreneurial Economics, and presented their ideas in a great way and showed that they were thinking about market gaps in an innovative way and that they were ready to offer solutions for missing products and services. Students traveled to the workshop with the support of the "Konrad Adenauer" Foundation as part of a cooperation with the Center for Project Management and Entrepreneurship (CPME).
