Business Concept: discover the world of entrepreneurship

SUPSI Article Header

The new edition of the Business Concept module, the Innosuisse entrepreneurship course organised in Ticino by SUPSI and USI, is about to start. Enrolment until 25 February 2025.

The Business Concept module offers a training program consisting of a bootcamp and 10 evening sessions (from 5:30 PM to 9:15 PM). During the course, you will learn to think and act like an entrepreneur, gaining both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to start and manage your own company.

The sessions are led by experienced trainers who will introduce you to the fundamental principles of the startup world. Participants will be divided into groups, each working on a business project and developing a mini-business plan.

The program is open to students, doctoral candidates, staff members, post-docs, and anyone with an innovative science-based idea to bring to life. The course is conducted entirely in English, and to ensure an optimal experience, participation is limited to a maximum of 25 attendees.
