Course aim

The EIT Health Entrepreneurship Summerschool aims to collect challenges from the healthcare providers, take them through a robust development process of analysis, ideation and financing, in order to develop targeted solutions, leading to business plan propositions and ultimately new start-ups.

Students will work on technologies/ projects provided in the first week (or can bring their own ides) in international and interdisciplinary teams to develop a minimum viable business proposition. Central steps are: problem/ opportunity identification, market analysis, customer involvement and collaboration, business models, go-to market strategies, financing, funding, pitching and team-building. Personal development is important and in the course of the program students will learn to think and act as an entrepreneur.
