Course Description:
In this course, we introduce the students to sustainable and social entrepreneurial thinking and acting by teaching them state-of-the-art tools and methods applied by companies and startups worldwide, which students could use to turn their own ideas into actual green and social business ventures. The students receive an overview on topics, such as corporate planning, social start-up finance and pitching. Besides examining how to create the more traditional business plan, we will particularly focus on the following tools: Design Thinking, Systems Thinking, Value Proposition Canvas and Business Model Canvas. Furthermore, we look into creativity techniques, which can help to generate business ideas and the most relevant tools needed to make use of one’s own research results. The students will apply the newly learned tools and methods by analyzing existing case studies and developing their own business ideas.
