CEDUS Startup Academy

In 4 days from an idea to a solid business model - that's the idea behind the Startup Academy at CEDUS. Here you can focus on existing or completely new ideas and develop them further with lots of support and know-how from other participants and coaches! With important tools, tips and tricks we knit together an idea into a business and with a bulging method case it can go afterwards with large steps in the direction of its own startup.
- The workshops of the Startup Academy will be held in German!
- Free participation
- No participation requirements
- Participants will receive a certificate of participation afterwards
- Important note: The workshops of the Startup Academy build on each other. Please note all 4 dates and register for participation via Eventbrite.

On day 1, we start with an introduction to entrepreneurship and lean impact, look at aspects of personal motivation as well as societal challenges and deal with the holistic understanding of problems. Finally, at the end of the day, first formulations on entrepreneurial business ideas exist.
