DESCRIPTION
This Blended Intensive Programme aims to equip students and researchers with skills necessary to develop and implement sustainable entrepreneurial business models, improving knowledge about Industrial Property and Negotiation in the context of the new paradigm related to the Circular Economy. The programme consists of 7 modules that combine theoretical knowledge with a collaborative problem-solving simulation through a capstone project. The first six online modules are completed with 1 intensive in-person workshop, providing a comprehensive understanding of sustainable entrepreneurship and innovation. Throughout this hands-on week, students will refine their concept through user centered design, iterative prototyping, and feedback sessions, ensuring it meets real-world sustainability challenges. Culminating in a final presentation, participants will showcase a polished prototype to industry leaders, investors, and experts in the sustainable sector, gaining valuable insights and connections to propel your i nnovative solution towards impactful implementation.
