The idea of becoming a startupper has always seemed complicated, confusing, and intimidating to me, but testing myself in the Fe/male Switch project turned out to be a great decision. This educational game will enable you to understand your strengths and weaknesses, learn a lot about the startup world and how things work (before you invest your time and money into a real business). You'll be able to work out whether this intensive lifestyle suits you or whether it's better to work the old-fashioned way for someone else. What is very important, these guys don't just throw you in the water and say "ok, now swim", but train, help, support and don't let you drown. It is very exciting that you can make mistakes in the game, learn from your own failures, and then apply your newly gained knowledge and wisdom to real life. And there are no consequences!
