The digital innovation lab is
an educational programme of the University of Vienna which is open to students and alumni of the Angewandte, where participants
learn the main tools and principles of entrepreneurship through a structured process. After an introductory phase, participants
build start-up teams of 2 to 4 people to develop compelling business models. Course instructors mentor them at every step
as they transform an initially rough idea into a mature business concept. At the end of the programme, start-up teams pitch
their business idea to a jury of business experts.
In this programme we strive to achieve a
high diversity of backgrounds. The ideal cohort will be formed by students of all genders and disciplinary areas (social and
human sciences, economics, computer sciences, and natural sciences) equally represented. To make it easily accessible to international
students, the entire course will be taught in English. The digital ilab is open to master students, PhD candidates, and postdocs.
Participants do not have to apply with an entrepreneurial idea; we accept participants both without and with an initial idea.
It is important, though, that if they participate with an early idea, they have not yet started working on a prototype.
