About this Event
Join us at the Festival of Innovation! This exciting event will be held at the Hochschule der Medien, where you can experience a celebration of creativity and cutting-edge ideas. Get ready to be inspired by innovative projects, engaging speakers, and interactive workshops. Whether you're a student, entrepreneur, or simply curious about the latest trends, this festival is the place to be. Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and explore the future of innovation!
Unlike the traditional Startup Weekend, this event is specifically designed for students and includes more structured instruction, coaching, and mentoring. It provides an excellent opportunity for students to develop their ideas intensively over a weekend—whether they originated in a course or are entirely new. Participants can also obtain a 3 ECTS certificate via ASAP after the event.
What remains the same:
- A kick-off on Friday afternoon with an inspiring keynote
- A full weekend of innovation and collboration
- Pitch training and coaching on Sunday,
- Structured input and support to make your startup idea fly
- The chance to present ideas on Sunday afternoon,
- Guidance from experienced mentors and coaches,
- Full catering
- A student-organized event – by students, for students.
We would love to have your support as a coach or mentor, or even through a workshop contribution. This event can also serve as an additional opportunity for students from your university to gain valuable entrepreneurial experience.
