info_outlineGoing to college or not can feel like the most important decision of a lifetime. Standing in front of such an important choice can easily cause confusion, apathy and a feeling of overwhelming.
Erik Bergman has built a company with 300+ employees. Today we explore his perspective of the importance of a college degree both as an employer and as an employee.
One of the most common questions that Erik gets from social media is "Is college important before starting a business and becoming an entrepreneur?" or "Is college even important?". We are no experts in this topic but we have lots of thoughts and our own experiences to share.
Some questions we touch upon are:
- Is college important as an entrepreneur?
- Why didn't we go to college ourselves?
- How did our parents take that?
- When is it a good idea to not go to college?
- What skills are most important for an entrepreneur, and is college the best place to learn them?

We start this episode by exploring what "college" even means. As two swedes this is a somewhat confusing term that has been romanticised by teen comedy movies.
We move on to describe the confusion that is very common to feel when standing in front of such an important decision. It can feel like the entire future depends on this and that's a very overwhelming feeling.
From there we move on to talk about what skillsets we believe are great for an entrepreneur to learn and how college can be used to find those skills. How networking can play an important role and how college can be a great place to find likeminded people with inspiring goals.
Is college important before starting a business and becoming an entrepreneur?
