The Innovation Center of the Ústí Region (ICUK) is pleased to present the new educational program Startup Academy, which started as a pilot on Thursday, October 5 in the premises of ICUK Space Hradební. This program was created with the aim of inspiring and developing young talents, pupils and students from our region who are interested in modern business. Enthusiasts signed up for the first year, ready to develop their entrepreneurial visions under the guidance of experts from ICUK.

During seven months, from October to April, the participants go through a series of workshops and training. The program is an educational path and offers an introduction to methods such as Lean Canvas, improving presentation skills, working with social networks, creating a marketing strategy, graphic design and much more. Everything leads to the final "pitch day", where participants present their projects in front of an expert jury. You can follow news and observations not only from the ongoing program on our social networks.

Startup Academy is more than just a program. It is a community of enthusiasts, creatives and future entrepreneurs. If you are a pupil or student and feel that you have an entrepreneurial spirit, do not hesitate to contact us at edu@icuk.cz. We will introduce you to other activities and programs for pupils, students, teachers and schools.
