Entrepreneurship Area of Expertise

The stream in Entrepreneurship aims to prepare students to succeed when exploring new business ideas. The courses will allow you to evaluate the feasibility of new solutions for existing market problems and develop and implement business models that create value. 

Entrepreneurship Experience Booklet

Nova SBE has a wide variety of offers for entrepreneurs. This means that it is hard to make sure that you are making the most out of everything the school has for you.

That is why we have gathered these experiences in a booklet to help you better design your entrepreneurial experience at the school.

Startup Summer Experience

A five-week internship experience where you will support a startup in a specific challenge. Startups benefit a lot from the experience of having external professionals supporting them with specific topics and challenges. Therefore we have created a uniquely immersive experience that will provide you with all the tools, resources, and network needed for you and the startup to succeed.

Stay tuned on our LinkedIn not to miss the launch of the next edition.
