Our Startup Academy is an opportunity for all scientists and graduates who are interested in the topic of start-ups and career paths outside of science, as well as employees of all start-ups who are still in the initial phases. You will learn new methods of entrepreneurial thinking. Through a series of weekly workshops you can learn everything that is necessary to become successful: from pitch training to design thinking, from business model design to applying for funding. We offer all our workshops in English and participants receive a certificate for each workshop completed.
