Entrepreneurship and Innovation Free University of Bozen-Bolzano

Overview

 This Entrepreneurship and Innovation  programme at Free University of Bozen-Bolzano gives the students a unique combination of in-depth theoretical knowledge and authentic learning experience on entrepreneurship and innovation. 

Creating a new venture or managing innovation processes in existing companies requires a particular mindset, where problems are opportunities, knowledge is continuously enhancing, and learning essentially means the ability to learn how to learn, from a problem-solving perspective. 

This is what we call entrepreneurial logic. Complexity and uncertainty cannot be controlled or eliminated, but they can be understood and managed.
