This interactive course equips students with essential entrepreneurial skills, practical methodologies, and hands-on experience needed to launch a startup from scratch. Students actively develop their startup ideas, applying lean startup principles, customer development, MVP creation using no-code tools, and real-world go-to-market strategies. Peer-to-peer feedback sessions and real-life customer interactions provide a realistic entrepreneurial experience. Students conclude by presenting investor-ready pitch decks.
The work will be organized in teams of 2-4 people. Teams will be formed in the beginning and will be assessed by the end result of their mutual work through the course.
