To formulate an interesting business idea is not the end of an entrepreneurial process. It is on the contrary only the beginning. The idea must, by means of both formal and informal methods, be developed to a business concept and a business opportunity. During this course, the students are challenged to identify needs, to identify and develop business ideas and to develop business concepts and business opportunities. To support this work, different methods and tools are presented in a series of lectures. The participants will get support in using these tools during a series of seminars, and in using a blend of theoretical analyses and practice-oriented learning methods.
