Pre-Incubator 2022
Our new Entrepreneurship Excellence Program is designed for researchers and future founders to learn the latest entrepreneurial tools and practice the skills needed to take an idea to the next level! Our Pre-Incubator is designed for the UniBw-Community in a flexible way: you will have the chance to participate in 5 different workshops that will take you through the entrepreneurial journey. If you complete the program, you will get a Diploma with which to share your new acquired knowledge and skills.
What is an incubator?
An incubator is a facility or institution that accompanies and supports prospective entrepreneurs in various ways on their way to self-employment. The term originally comes from medicine, where an incubator refers to an incubator to offer newborns optimal conditions for growing up. In a figurative sense, these programs can also be understood for start-ups or intrapreneurship projects.
We will take you through the basics of entrepreneurship: idea generation, prototyping and testing, business models, team management, legal questions of innovations and presentations. All these workshops will get you the skills, tools and mindset to be an entrepreneur: either within your research or in starting your own company.
