Entrepreneurship Courses
Having many years of entrepreneurship teaching experience, one of our central activities will be to offer our services to universities, schools, employment agencies as well as companies to talk about entrepreneurship in general and the development of entrepreneurial opportunities from the initial business idea to execution and growth in particular. Our team combines more than 40 years of entrepreneurial teaching expertise with courses ranging from technology commercialization to social entrepreneurship in rural areas.
As part of our teaching activities at the Chair for Entrepreneurship and Technology Commercialization of EPFL, lead by Prof. Dr. Marc Gruber who is a scientific advisor and member of our team, our members run courses on a Bachelor, Master as well as PhD level. These courses range from general entrepreneurship courses to specific technology commercialization courses.

Workshops & Bootcamps
Besides the classical teaching activities we also organize targeted workshops and bootcamp trainings to work in-depth with a small group of entrepreneurs to help them establish their business on a professional level. These tailored programs help entrepreneurs accelerate their endeavors. Especially technology inventors often lack a commercial mindset. Therefore, we take them out of their comfort zone and offer a variety of activities to assure that they (1) understand the market opportunities, (2) develop a clear business model, (3) shape their unique selling propositions, (4) learn how to do financial statements, (5) and pitch their business over and over again, among many other activities.
As part of the collaboration with KAUST, we organize a tailored 5-day bootcamp training, helping technology inventors to take their inventions to the market. „...Peter gave us invaluable advice above and beyond his mandate here at KAUST. His forthright, impeccably honest and accurate feedback was essentail for our progress. It enabled us to raise the quality and effectiveness of our project. His wide startup experience and his deep understanding of potential contingencies became evident to all. These attributes allowed him to help us frame the questions that we initially did not even know we had to ask. He is a professional, dedicated, forthright and friendly individual, who can bring immense value to any startup-oriented or funding-oriented venture. Thanks to him, we have been given all the tools we need to succeed in this phase of our development.“ Georg Eitelhuber (Founder of Nomadd)
