MSc. Coelen, J.

Jeroen Coelen is PhD Candidate & Lecturer at the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering.

Academic Background

My name is Jeroen and I concern myself with the following question:
What is crucial to the success of innovation, startups specifically? Which elements should an entrepreneur develop as soon as possible in the startup journey? This question I seek out to answer in my PhD research. I apply the knowledge that I’ve gathered in my Build Your Startup course. This can be considered a pre-incubator, where startup ideas are tested and launched.
