Our offers for students

Every semester, the Institute of Entrepreneurship and Innovation Science (ENI) offers a wide range of courses and interdisciplinary key qualifications related to entrepreneurship – from start-up simulation hackathons to start-up crash courses.

In this lecture series, experts from the business world and start-up scene provide exciting insights into the topics of transfer, innovation, founding and start-ups on a weekly basis. Each week, a new focus topic is presented – practical and inspiring.

Dates: Every Wednesday during the winter semester in Lecture Hall 47.03, Pfaffenwaldring 47, University of Stuttgart.
