Bodensee Startup School, 30. Aug. – 7. Sep. 2022

In the fourth edition of the Bodensee Startup School, you can look forward to nine days full of startup power, in which you will progress from an idea to the pitch of your business model. No prior knowledge or own idea is needed to participate. During the Startup School, you will learn about the phases of developing a startup and how to use your research for this process. In addition, you will gain useful skills such as building a team, identifying a problem, conducting user interviews, doing a competitive analysis, creating a funding plan, and pitching an idea. Further, you will be supported by mentors and experts from our local start-up scene – a perfect opportunity to network. The BSS is a great opportunity to think outside of the academic box and to explore the alternative career path of entrepreneurship.

When: 30. August until 7. September 2022
Where: HTWG Konstanz and ZU Friedrichshafen
Registration: until 1. August 2022
