This workshop introduces doctoral candidates to entrepreneurial thinking, a crucial competence for any career path – whether as a startup founder, in the corporate world, or in academia. It provides doctoral candidates the opportunity to explore tools that assist entrepreneurs in navigating uncertainty, working with their resources, and identifying and structuring opportunities. Moreover, the doctoral candidates will learn how to collaborate with cofounders and manage their startup team.
Finally, with the workshop, we also invite the doctoral candidates to learn about TUM’s vibrant startup ecosystem and facilitate interactions with its most important players enabling the candidates to benefit from the ecosystem for their own entrepreneurial journeys.
