Unite! with Young Entrepreneurs in Mind
With young entrepreneurs in mind, the Seed Fund–financed project “Unite! Support for Entrepreneurship Development: Pre-Incubation Programme” was created. It is implemented by Wrocław Tech, TU Darmstadt, and TU Graz.
Although various entrepreneurship courses operate within the Unite! alliance universities, a common, structured programme has been missing so far. The Pre-Incubation Programme (PIP) aims to fill this gap by providing students with the opportunity to gain experience in international teams.
“Unite! Entrepreneurship Development” will combine knowledge in artificial intelligence, business psychology, and startup development methodologies. Students will work on their own business ideas using the design thinking approach, problem-based learning, and strategic action planning.
"Our university has many years of experience in practical entrepreneurship education, including the Grow Up Tech programme, which supports students in developing real business projects. Each partner university contributes its proven solutions and know-how. Together, we aim to create a practical, international programme that will genuinely prepare students for the role of founders and for building innovative companies"
The developed model is intended to become the foundation for a future joint programme within the Unite! alliance, strengthening the innovation ecosystem and student mobility across all partner universities.
The project team’s in-person meeting is scheduled for 18–20 March in Wrocław. The team is also working online on tasks including the analysis of existing programmes, the selection of teaching methods, and the engagement of industry partners.
