EIS: Startup Speed-run
Borrowed from gaming, a speed-run means completing a challenge as efficiently as possible. In this hands-on workshop, participants take part in a 6-hour sprint that walks through the startup journey, from clarifying the problem and solution to building a business model and pitching.
The workshop is designed for students taking the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Studies (EIS) courses as well as anyone interested in developing their own idea further.
What you’ll get
Hands-on experience of working in a fast-paced startup environment
The opportunity to develop your own idea into a feasible business concept
Practical tools to prioritise, focus, and move ideas forward
Feedback and peer learning throughout the day
