Kurzbeschreibung | Innovative solutions are required to tackle global food challenges of today and identify opportunities along the entire food value chain. The “Entrepreneurial Summer School: Food Innovation Lab” aims at guiding interdisciplinary teams through an innovation process - from identifying challenges, developing consumer-centric solutions to prototyping in the laboratory and business model development. | ||||
Lernziel | The summer school "Food Innovation Lab" strengthens participants to think out of the box, enables them to develop novel human-centered solutions for global food challenges, and thus empowers them to have a sustainable impact as future entrepreneurs or employees. | ||||
Inhalt | The summer school takes place from Friday 28.06.2019 till Saturday 13.07.2018 in Zurich. This programme brings together both students and professionals from engineering, natural and social sciences, and humanities. The course draws on recognised 'innovative' pedagogies to deliver the entrepreneurial mindset and competencies of participants through highly interactive and applied activities such as gamification, peer-to-peer teaching and assessment as well as learning analytics. (1) Inspirational phase: The course starts with an inspirational phase on current challenges of the food system. Talks and workshops will be given by internal and external food experts and entrepreneurs. In order to best possibly design a product, an expert of the field presents insights on sociological aspects of consumer behaviour and the future of food. A field trip to Nestlé Research in Lausanne complements the inspiration phase. (2) Ideation phase: After the inspirational phase, ideas are generated on how to solve these challenges with help of design thinking. Furthermore, team-building workshops are held to form interdisciplinary teams with broad skill sets. (3) Prototyping phase: A strong focus is placed on the prototyping with real-life testing thereof. The food labs, pilot plants and maker space available at ETH can be used to do so. (4) Business creation: The most important aspects on how to create a business are conducted within the summer school. Areas include market research and analysis, marketing, sales and financial planning. (5) Final pitch: A final pitch where both prototype and business model are presented in front of a jury of experts. The jury includes professors, entrepreneurs, experts of the field, and investors. | ||||
