Inspiration
Workshops
Bring in an innovation consultant to run a business development workshop. The workshop is ideal for courses that practice case teaching. During the workshop we take you through the nine building blocks of a business model and give you a basic business understanding.
Workshop headlines can be:
- Realise your idea / introduction to innovation and entrepreneurship
- Business models and financing
- Presentation techniques & storytelling in relation to startups and innovative projects.
Pitch training
Courses based on case teaching take advantage of KU Lighthouse's pitch training programme.
A good pitch is crucial for the survival of the idea. Pitch training and pitch competition are usually offered as a package deal. One to two weeks after the pitch training, we will facilitate a pitch competition.
Students have 3 minutes to pitch their idea in front of a panel of judges. The training programme and the competition both last approximately 2 hours.
