Content

An entrepreneurial mindset is a set of knowledge and skills that enables people to identify and make the most of opportunities, overcome and learn from setbacks, and succeed in a variety of settings. 

As a small group (or individual), students seek or create an opportunity in the market which they want to execute. The opportunity, that students need to carry out within the 7 weeks, could be generating financial profit or be a good deed idea to make a positive impact on the selected target audience. 

The project is built around the concept of a growth mindset where they develop professional reflective skills and professional collaboration skills Students go through the steps of idea generation, opportunity mapping, opportunity screening, and developing an action plan (incl. a promotional plan). To improve the idea/action plan students conduct interviews with experts. 


In Visual Communication, the student produces a commercial for their business.
