Entrepreneurship and Forall, Forall and Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship and Forall, Forall and Entrepreneurship

Attitude of someone who, on their own initiative, carries out actions or devises new methods with the aim of developing and boosting services, products or any organization and administration activities

This is the definition presented by the Portuguese language dictionary for entrepreneurship. This involves the implementation of ideas and projects by the entrepreneur, a dynamic, innovative and risk-averse individual.

But, let's not confuse this attitude with just the highly coveted ones startups! It's not that they have nothing to do with each other, because they do and, in fact, one fits into the other. Astartup is nothing more, nothing less , than anentrepreneurial attitude, resulting from innovative ideas in conditions of extreme uncertainty.< /p>

(pause in theoretical matter).

And the Forall Phones what is it?

A Forall was born from an innovative idea of a young man who, at the age of 16, sells his used cell phone for a profit. From then on, on his own initiative, he had the desire to create a company that sells ?high-end? mobile phones accessible to any pocket (ForAll = For All).

Thus, with the intention of < b>create new methods to streamline your services, aForall Phones has a network of ambassadors (called Community Shapers, because we believe that we are building and shaping the future through this disruptive community) which, today, has more than 200 university students, two physical stores (Porto and Lisbon) and a series of services that go far beyond sales and allow any ambassador to grow in this company.

Easy to understand parallelism, right?

Exactly! A Forall before being a startup successful Portuguese startup, is an entrepreneurship project that began with a simple sale and, quickly, with determination, it became one of the most innovative and sustainable ideas that we, young university students or recent graduates, have ever seen.

With this, I want to highlight the importance that entrepreneurship has in the 21st century, a century that has just begun and is already full of new creations. I want to encourage and awaken theentrepreneurial spirit in each of us. And no! To be an entrepreneur it is not necessary to ?run? a company or have a unique and completely innovative idea. It is necessary to know how to look for and seize new opportunities, which make us grow personally and professionally, leaving our comfortable routine and venturing into unknown paths that, in the end, will give us ?baggage? for the near future.
And wait, that's not exactly what the 200+ shapers from Forall do?

Improve every day. Create impact
