Lecturers of Young Chemist’s School:

Start-up Development

Wojciech Wodo
PhD, Research Assistant, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland

Description:

During this training you will get knowledge about business oriented approach to following three main areas:

  • Start-up Development
  • Minimum Viable Product
  • Innovation Management

We will discuss  issues associated with buzz word “start-up”, we will try to build our own definition and work around it, we are going to explore some concepts for growing the company having only limited resources.  The most desired skills of every leader will be elaborated and effective team work methods.

You will learn about concept of MVP – Minimum Viable Product and how to use it in practice in order to speed up your projects and get as much feedback as possible. Few essential concepts of preparing new products and services will be discussed.

At the training we will dive into innovations world, we are going to clarify discrepancies among sorts of innovations and will focus on three main branches and discuss terms and conditions in which they could flourish. Also the idea of Open Innovation will be presented .
