Success stories

New entrepreneur Julieta Segura is a photographer, videographer, and playwright from Spain. After working in personal projects such as theater performances, films, and still photography, Julieta decided to apply to the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme to make an exponential leap in her business and open it to the European market. The host entrepreneur is Frank R. Schröder, the founder of iHeartBerlin, an online platform based in Berlin Germany that provides a information on the events of the city.

During her exchange with Frank, Julieta was able to use her skills as a photographer, videographer and writer and get in contact with many Berlin-based clients and artists to expand her network of potential clients and collaborators. She brought a rich history of cultural business in Berlin and enriched her portfolio with a diversity of pictures and videos made throughout her exchange. While doing that, she also had the possibility to write some articles for the official blog of iHeartBerlin.

Frank’s knowledge and long experience in cultural life in Berlin helped Julieta develop new skills in the field that are critical for her business project, such as making new contacts, being quickly prepared for different kinds of events and taking as many benefits of it as possible. Moreover, he introduced her to his contacts, who helped and will keep helping her throughout her entrepreneurial journey. On the other side, Julieta has helped Frank by giving his platform a new aesthetic, taking account her perspective on photos and videos and also including new opinions on the blog where she was able to write about important events that took place during her exchange.
