Foundation workshop: Inventory and overview

In this series of events, we’ll take stock of what you already have in place and what you still need to turn your idea into a business model. As part of our two-day event program, on November 30 you’ll have the opportunity to take a crash course on the startup process with David Sauer from the Startup Academy at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. Following that, we’ll introduce the Business Model Canvas—a tool for evaluating your startup idea based on various factors. On December 1, we’ll take a deeper look at your startup idea using the Business Model Canvas, identifying where you’re already good and where there might still be room for improvement. The individual events are described in more detail below. If you plan to attend an event, please fill out the corresponding registration form so we can estimate how many people will be coming. If you decide to join us on the spur of the moment, you’re also warmly invited.
