Such as + verb: what form of verb should I use?

Let's say I've just come up with this sentece:

'They are prompted to do several important things such as pursue their careers or establish a new company. '

Is it correct? Or should I rather use another form of verb after 'such as'?

Tomasz Klepinowski They are prompted to do several important things such as ( to ) pursue their careers or establish a new company. You have used the same form as the form used by 'do'. That's correct.
