Start of advanced training programmeSuccessful launch event of Entrepreneurial Skills Modules

17 November 2022

The transfer agency hei_INNOVATION, together with heiSKILLS, the language and competence centre, presented the advanced training programme “Entrepreneurial Skills” at a big launch event in the department#16 on November 3, 2022. Invited to this event were all interested persons who wanted to learn more about the modules and the idea behind them in a festive and relaxed setting.

Michael Feygelman from the KI Garage Baden-Württemberg moderated the event. After the official welcome by Dr. Raoul Haschke from hei_INNOVATION and Petra Eggensperger from heiSKILLS, Julia Piechotta and Amelie Vermeer presented the continuing education programme with the individual modules to the interested audience.

The “Entrepreneurial Skills” advanced training programme is aimed at all members of the university, especially students and young researchers who want to turn innovative business ideas into a start-up or spin-off, or who are interested in innovation management and transfer strategies. To do this, they can select courses from a modular range to acquire specific knowledge, or complete the entire programme of continuing education and graduate with a certificate. The modules can be taken free of charge by members of the University from the winter semester 22/23.

Following the presentation, alumnus Dr. Mridul Agrawali, President and Co-Founder of Iuvando Health in New York, gave insights into the start-up process of his company and shared the experience he gained from it. Afterwards, three prospective founding teams already supported by hei_INNOVATION had the opportunity to present their business idea in a three-minute pitch and win prize money of 1000 euros. The three jury members were particularly impressed by Ryan Alicea's team with their idea for an electric hand orthosis.
