Online course @ Technical University of Crete, Greece | 28.04 – 30.05.2025
Have you ever thought of designing a sustainable bench for your porch, school, or neighbourhood? Are you interested in learning the design thinking steps that will lead you to a viable final product? Do you want to virtually walk through a Living Lab and discover the user-centric approach of innovation? Would you like to learn how to pitch your work in a marketable way? Then the Deep Dive in Innovation & Entrepreneurship (I&E) Intensive Course 2025 is for you!
This course provides practical knowledge and hands on experience for a deeper understanding in materializing an innovative idea in the entrepreneurial world. Starting from a design challenge, you will be introduced and follow the steps required to end up with a prototype that covers existing needs. With your active participation in the lectures, workshops and coaching sessions with I&E experts, you will build and present a pitch deck and learn from fellow participants through peer review evaluation of projects. A contest at the end of the course will award the best pitch and best prototype (i.e., sustainable neighbourhood bench).
The course is open to participants from all levels of Academia (Professors, Students and Staff), Industry, Government and the public sector.
