Content and scheduling

Starting your own business is not for everyone. For someone who needs security, paid work might be the smartest career option. However, it does not rule out the possibility of co-ownership. Acquiring a partnership is significantly less risky than starting your own company and is suitable for a wider group of people. It is one way to realize entrepreneurial dreams, but without the uncertainty that comes with entrepreneurship. Co-ownership is at its lightest like paid work, but with entrepreneurial benefits. You can even practice co-ownership as a side business, in addition to paid work.

From the point of view of owner control, companies can be divided into three categories: startup entrepreneurship, traditional entrepreneurship and buyout entrepreneurship. The course introduces the main differences between these three forms of entrepreneurship from the point of view of the co-owner and offers tools and ideas for starting your own partnership path.

After the course, the student can:

- analyze the key differences between business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and evaluate the suitability of business forms, taking into account your own life situation
- categorize the multiple roles of a co-owner in different business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) and analyze the most suitable role for yourself
- compare the practices of acquiring part ownership in different business forms (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship)
- analyze the logic of prosperity and related tax practices in each form of entrepreneurship (startup, traditional and buyout entrepreneurship) separately
- calculate ownership changes and the probability of prosperity in practice
