Technology Venture Development
Description
Join us in an interdisciplinary exploration of technology startup’s business model and strategy. This pioneering course offers you an opportunity to work with a technology-based startup from the local ecosystem or a corporate venture in an internship-like setting and help them progress.
In a group of three to four students from different faculties and study programs, you will work on two projects:
1. Validate and challenge startup’s business model and strategy
2. Provide consulting on a specific business challenge provided by the startup.
In addition, you will be coached and taught solid business theoretical foundation and practical lessons. You will apply your learnings directly, solving pressing business challenges and driving innovation.
This hands-on experience allows to you communicate directly with startup’s key decision-makers and see the effects of your work making a difference.
This course is a real-world expedition into business model innovation, designed to inspire, challenge, and prepare you for a future where you drive change.
What to expect?
We expect you to spend around three days a week with the startup and about one day a week in the classroom setting. Given its 15 ECTS, we expect your full weekly commitment, as in any joint interdisciplinary project.
