Female entrepreneurship is on the rise and contributes considerably to a wide diversity of (digital) products and services within startup ecosystems worldwide. The “WoMenventures” seminar builds upon this potential and highlights a woman’s perspective on venture creation processes. The aim is to promote an entrepreneurial mindset among students (BA, MA) and scientists (PhD, Postdoc) interested in learning about the contribution of women’s (digital) entrepreneurship within the Berlin startup ecosystem.

To this end, all participants work in interdisciplinary teams on their own ideas in order to reflect on the opportunities and challenges of implementing innovative values in a practical way. Experienced female entrepreneurs actively support the teams and provide input on various topics, such as value creation, pitching, a lean startup model, marketing and financing of their own companies.

The seminar is designed in a flexible, inverted-classroom format and divided into three phases:

Summer Term 2022
