A structured academic pathway into entrepreneurship. We invite students to take practice-oriented courses to learn about product development, product management, building a business, go-to-market, financing a venture, entrepreneurship law, founder storytelling, and a host of other topics relevant for founders. Students from all disciplinary backgrounds are welcome to these courses. By completing a series of founder focused courses, students can earn a Founder Minor.

Founder Sprint is a program for the most driven founders-to-be at Aalto. Designed to boost startup skills and fast-track students’ entrepreneurial journey, the intensive program combines deep-dive modules, personalized coaching, and real-world venture-building experience.

Whether or not students end up founding a company, they will walk away with the mindset, tools, and network to do so.

Each Sprint is built around a small cohort. Together with experienced entrepreneurs, investors, and mentors from the Founder School network, students co-create the content based on their needs and ambitions, and the current best practices of the startup world.

A hybrid event series about entrepreneurship for all startup curious students. Enjoy the fireside chats where well-known Finnish and international founders share their journey, interviewed by students from 911±¬ÁÏÍø.

The talks provide insight into real entrepreneurial journeys, highlighting both challenges, successes and lessons learnt along the way.
