How do a former WiSo student and employee, a start-up and height-adjustable desks actually fit together?

Mark Boomer started with us as a student and student assistant at the WiSo. Now, he has his own start-up: Klappt. In our latest WiSo alumni interview, he tells us how this came about, what he took away from his time at WiSo and tips he can pass on. Read the full interview here.

Dear students,

Would you like to do something good? Then we have just the thing for you:

In Germany, about 15,000 blood donations are needed every day  (BZgA, 2022). With your blood donation, you too can help patients who urgently need it for their recovery, and even save up to three lives! It's easy to help by dropping by the Blood Donation Centre (Blutspendezentrale) at the University Hospital (Kerpener Str. 62) spontaneously or with an appointment booked online.

Donations are possible: Mo-Mi: 12-19 h and Thu-Sa: 07:30-14 h.

If you are unsure whether you can donate blood, don't worry: Before each donation, a short health check is carried out and you only donate on the day if you are healthy. After donating, you can rest on site - if necessary - and have snacks until you are fit again. In addition, the team is available by phone and in person to answer your questions before, during and after your donation, and you can also find a lot of information online.

So why don't you come and take a break from studying and writing your homework?

The Kölner Stadtanzeiger is looking for a female student in a business-related degree programme, aged 18-25, to talk about her experiences/expectations as a woman in the professional field for a print article. The interview will take place in the context of a generation comparison on the topic of "Women in Business".
