Contents overview

Over the course of the semester, the course "Introduction to Entrepreneurship" takes students through the various steps and challenges of the entire start-up process: from the initial idea to market launch and establishment. Basic patterns of thought and action (theoretical concepts) for technology-oriented start-ups are introduced. In particular, various functional aspects of developing and creating, evaluating and successfully exploiting technological opportunities are addressed. The business plan as a central element is taught so that students can deliver their ideas qualitatively and quantitatively. Students learn to generate ideas and evaluate them. Creating business models and a business plan is taught. Students also learn to calculate the business value and profitability of companies and / or individual projects. Imparted theoretical foundations will be complemented by practical guest lecturer presentations.
