VaPassion
Building the most ambitious multidisciplinary student initiative in Mannheim has always and will always be our higher goal. We want to embrace all different paths that you can choose in your career whether it is startups, media, fashion or anything else that interests you.
Being at VaPassion means taking your own ideas into action with projects that will excite you and your fellow students. In the past our members came up with great ideas and thus we could organize the first ever TEDx talk in Mannheim as well as presentations and workshops with companies such as Google, ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG, Hugo Boss, Number26 and numerous others.
We truly believe that the interdisciplinary combination of students from all subjects makes us unique. We warmly welcome students from all faculties and help them to realize their plans.
Besides of talks and presentations we like to strengthen our spirit with frequent team events. Regularly, we organize a „Running Dinner“ with an afterparty. We also support our members on events like open stages and participate in the Unicef running event.
If you would like to know more about us or want to meet us in person, just drop in on one of our weekly meetings on Wednesday 7pm. Check out our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/vapassion/ or our website at http://www.vapassion.de.
