Comment/Description

This course is an on-demand online course and accessible for students from different backgrounds and disciplines. The kick-off and closing sessions will be held in person at the University of Augsburg.

The course introduces entrepreneurship as an effective tool for implementing sustainable innovations. The students will learn how to tackle pressing societal and environmental challenges of our time. In the interdisciplinary sessions facilitated by professors from multiple faculties at LMU Munich, University of Augsburg, and the CDTM the students will learn about impact as a guiding principle for entrepreneurship. We discuss which stakeholders are important for entrepreneurs and how impact can be holistically achieved and measured. Thanks to interactive digital classes, the students will learn to develop sustainable business models but also how startups are financed and sustained in the long term. They will achieve an impact-oriented skillset over the duration of the course, gain a new holistic perspective on value creation and destruction, become conscious of the value of impactful innovations and be able to put theory into practice. The impact-oriented knowledge they will gain cannot only be applied to their own field of study or to their professional careers, but also to their daily lives.
