Incubator
The ECLA-social entrepreneurship incubator seeks to provide favourable conditions for ECLA students to come up with their own projects.
To this end, all students will submit a project pitch in April. The SWW-coordination team will select the most promising proposals for
substantive further examination and development during the SWW. More precisely, groups will seek to advance the various projects as far as
possible until the end of the week, when a jury will award a prize to the best project. Throughout the week, morning lectures by invited speakers
(see speakers) will offer the possibility to thoroughly examine social entrepreneurship. In the afternoon, faculty will offer modules on ethics,
business, politics and aesthetics intended to offer platforms for the critical examination and further advancement of the projects.
