Hello YES Family, this is Houssam Al Jawhari, Mount Lebanon representative.

Some of ya’ll requested a training session on How To Start Your Own Business. It happens that I had attended a series of workshops that tackle different aspects that should be taken into consideration when starting a new business at LAU. Since currently, YES is suffering from budget cuts, I thought maybe I could share with you what I had learned. I found these sessions beneficial for anyone who has a business idea and wants some help.

One of the goals that we wanted to reach this year as a board is sharing the knowledge and skills we have as an alumni network, so we encourage each and every one of you to share whatever they have, and think is beneficial for others.

Mind you that these sessions are presented by Elie Haddad which is a graduating LAU student majoring in Business/Finance. He’s the Founder, Chairman, and CEO at Let’sGrant who has also advised and mentored over 100 start-ups.

To access the sessions please use this link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1UHWY5469rxTXpWyTYohIaQSeoowXhxpF?usp=sharing

In this link, you will find a PDF (that represents the first session of this series) & and a google doc (that will guide you to the rest of the prerecorded video sessions). We hope that you will benefit and best of luck! If anyone has a similar idea where we share knowledge online, please don’t hesitate to contact one of the board members!
