From Idea to I did - Turn your Science into Business
Second Episode: Financial Planning of Academic Spin-offs.
Do you have a good knowledge of entrepreneurship in general, but would now like to focus on more practical/precise aspects? You have a strong appetite to understand fundraising and way(s) to achieve that? Realizing dilution and antedilution aren’t about homeopathy, you are mixing up equities and equidaes? Or you just liked our first episode and want to learn more on how to make your first real steps as a Scientrepreneur?
If so, we welcome you to join the second online episode of Helmholtz Entrepreneur’s series “From Idea to I did”, on January 12th.
Then, you’ll first have the opportunity to attend a lecture by Klaus Kammermeier (InnovationLabs) to get the background, theory and vocabulary on finance/investment of an AI/Software spin-off.
Following this, join the direct exchange with our two guests: multi-founder Manuel Opitz, CEO from deepeye and venture capitalist investor Oliver Schoppe, from UVC Partner.
