This programme is to support EUR employees in developing the capabilities to improve and sustain innovation for society. At the university, many novel ideas and innovations are explored. Some are interesting enough to be further developed for practical application, or even for independent (startup) initiatives. But how?
Understanding what drives entrepreneurship and having an entrepreneurial spirit are critical success factors. Entrepreneurship Awakening will help you to understand and explore entrepreneurship in such a way that, whenever you have invented something, you do not start from scratch. Even if you do not see yourself as an entrepreneur, an entrepreneurial attitude will prove beneficial in an academic setting.
