Call Objective<\/strong> <\/p>\n
\nWithin the Campus mission, Entrepreneurship Labs (E-Labs) are a part of our European Network of
\nEIT Health Entrepreneurship Labs. Their primary objective is to inspire and empower health
\ninnovators of the future, including entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and other innovation-minded
\nindividuals within organisations, to incubate ideas, health innovation and start-ups. This educational
\noffering provides its participants with alternative ways of thinking and acting that are opportunity-
\ndriven and holistic in approach, with the purpose of creating economic, cultural and\/or social value
\nfor others.
\nCampus is calling for proposals for semester-long E-Labs that will train a minimum of 50 students
\nusing interactive learning-by-doing methods, based on real challenges and needs in the healthcare
\nsector. E-Labs are designed to educate, empower and connect learners from different disciplines to
\nacquire an entrepreneurial mind-set, to increase the exchange of knowledge and best-practices
\nbetween learners and their peers, to communicate and connect with mentors and other
\nentrepreneurs, and to aspire to create value and innovative solutions for society that will ultimately
\nimprove innovation potential on a European level. E-Labs stand in the middle of the innovation
\njourney, offering students, young professionals and entrepreneurs an opportunity to learn about
\nand experience early incubation in their entrepreneurship journey, by connecting them to the
\nknowledge triangle of education, research and business.
\nPrior to E-Labs, students may take part in trainings such as Innovation Days (1-2 day programmes)
\nand Summer Schools (2-3 week programmes), during which participants are briefly introduced to
\nthe skills related to entrepreneurship and innovation. E-Labs, on the other hand, provide the next
\nstep in the innovation journey by supporting participants in further developing these skills and
\napplying them to specific challenges within the field of health and healthcare. E-Labs participants
\ngain the unique opportunity to work in a longer time-frame and deeper level to develop solutions to
\nthese health challenges, thereby getting a high level of entrepreneurship training. Participants
\nultimately develop business ideas and\/or build prototypes to a maturity that can support them in
\nthe next phase of their innovation journey (e.g. Campus programme Innovation Fellowships,
\nAccelerator programme Bootcamps, etc.).<\/p>\n
