Academy

First step: Start!

Founding a start-up is often associated with many challenges. If you have a business idea, be courageous and bring it to life! Learn in our StartGlocal Academy, what it means to build your own company!

Learn, what it means to be a real entrepreneur!

The StartGlocal Academy will teach you all the important business basics necessary for the development of your innovative idea into a promising business model.

Teamwork

You can apply alone or as a team for the StartGlocal Academy. We advice you to apply as a team with the interdisciplinary competence of team members, as it enhances the chance for the success of your start-up business. The maximum number of team members should not exceed five.

You will work on your submitted innovative start-up idea in a team during the whole workshop program. If you are applying alone, there will be an opportunity to team-up with others during the StartGlocal Academy. Moreover, also new team members from the Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, can join your team during the StartGlocal Academy, after the consultation with the StartGlocal team.

The work in interdisciplinary and international teams gives you an opportunity to acquire valuable communication and teamwork skills that you can apply either at our final event Demo Day or also later in your professional life.

Access to a wide range of study materials

Moreover, you will get an access to a Moodle course with the content from all workshops and other exciting information provided by experts and the StartGlocal team.

Network

A participation in the StartGlocal Academy offers you numerous opportunities to network with different stakeholders and mentors. In our final event DEMO DAY you will get the chance to pitch your start-up idea in front of a jury and win special prizes.

We are also going to organise regular informal Start-up Community Meet-ups, to which you and your team are cordially invited.
