HUBS Pre-incubator is the place to develop a business idea in a sustainable way. The 8-week program combines the methods of team learning, purposeful development of team working skills alongside the traditional business development. The students and the coach tailor the exact content based &nbsp;on team-specific / individual needs. The course includes mandatory &nbsp;lessons on Lean Startup methodology and business development. &nbsp;In &nbsp;addition, teams are instructed to read articles, literature &nbsp;and study other online materials on relevant entrepreneurial &nbsp;themes. The gained knowledge is applied to practice with various &nbsp;validations, evaluations, and business planning templates. Training sessions: Each group has training sessions, where business idea development &nbsp;topics are handled in dialogue. The students / teams get to share their &nbsp;progress, ask for peer advice and receive coaching. Coaches, team &nbsp;colleagues, and a personal working life mentor support the business idea &nbsp;development process along the way. The student will draw a study plan &nbsp;and reports the results in a separately agreed manner (goals, outcomes &nbsp;and reflection of the learning process documented).
