From temporary status to own company: 4 years in Luxembourg “Empower to Employ”

In March 2022, Andre Mitin arrived in Luxembourg without the language,

without contacts, without any understanding of how things work here.

He obtained an independent licence and, two years later, founded Lux

Photo Pro — photography, video production, marketing and SMM. Today

the team has grown to 10 people. Over the past year, Andre has

conducted more than 50 interviews — and now sees the job market as an

employer and the services market as the owner of an actively growing

business.

What the talk covers:

A step-by-step roadmap from the first week in the country to launching

a company — year by year, decision by decision. Each stage comes with

real cases, concrete numbers, mistakes, and what to do differently.

Key topics:

– Reaching a working level of the local languages without courses —

what actually works

– The legal path: from indépendant to SARL — when, how, and what it

actually costs

– How to find your first clients without an established network

– What an employer actually looks for in a CV, an interview, and

beyond (insights from 50+ interviews)

– The mistakes that cost time and money — so you don’t have to repeat them
