From Lithuania to the Netherlands: An Opportunity Odyssey

Meet Vladislav Volosevic, an innovative 27-year-old from Lithuania. He set his sights on a degree in Applied Computer Science at Saxion University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands, driven by a vision to secure his financial future and support his family back home. The Netherlands was a no-brainer with its part-time work opportunities and student-friendly financial aid. His journey abroad wasn't the original plan, but life had other ideas. Little did he know that this adventure would be the birthplace of his very own business.

Twente Movers: From Joke to Business Brilliance

Vladislav's journey into entrepreneurship took an unexpected twist when a joke from a friend sparked the birth of Twente Movers in 2018. What started as a casual idea quickly snowballed into a serious business. Vladislav noticed a gap in the Dutch customer service scene, especially in the moving and related services department. Twente Movers swooped in to rescue students and expats with their moving, cleaning, and fixing needs. It was a service born out of necessity, fuelled by Vladislav's determination to tackle real-world problems. As demand soared, Twente Movers spread its wings.

YOSHI, a 20-week adventure founded by Saxion's Centre for Entrepreneurship, played an important role in Vladislav's entrepreneurial journey. It provided him with valuable guidance from experts like business coach Maarten Bas Backer, who not only helped Vladislav identify his weaknesses but also offered valuable feedback.

The program offered a comprehensive entrepreneurial experience, covering everything from brainstorming to sales strategies and from branding to the magic of marketing. Moreover, it connected Vladislav with accomplished guest speakers, who generously shared their battle-tested wisdom, providing him with a fresh perspective and bucketloads of inspiration.
