Students and lecturers eagerly awaited to get started with the new entrepreneurship program, the Honours Degree 2018. Finally, on March 1st, the kick-off meeting took place where all participants got to know each other.
After a short introduction, students presented their fascinating business ideas. By this, the audience was able to understand all the business ideas and their needs for future developments. Now, students with great ideas got in contact with students possessing exceptional capabilities. Following this ‘speed dating’, all 25 students were “matched” with their favourite team member or favourite business idea.
Therefore, six teams develop their individual business ideas into sound business models and prototypes during the Honours Degree 2018. In order to ensure fast progress and best working conditions, an interdisciplinary team of lecturers of the University of Passau and external experts will provide the teams with advice and assistance.
In April, many workshops will take place, in which all teams will start to work intensely on their business ideas.
