In a recent live interview with CNBC, Helmut Schoenenberger, co-founder and CEO of UnternehmerTUM, discussed the growth of Germany’s startup ecosystem and highlighted the key areas where further improvements are needed.

With over 50,000 students at Technical University of Munich and entrepreneurship education integrated into every third student's journey, we remain deeply committed to shaping the next generation of innovators.

"𝗗𝗼 𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹?" It's a question that often arises in conversations with students and professionals. And it’s one that speaks to the heart of what entrepreneurship truly means. Kriti Thakur-Pohlmann, Educational Design and Facilitation at UnternehmerTUM Academy for Innovators, reflects on this very question after a recent experience that left a lasting impact. "Having had the chance to meet one of the most influential figures in the world, Mr. Nandan Nilekani at the TUM Speakers Series Event. For many in the audience, including myself, it was like seeing a bookshelf/newspapers from my childhood. A person who we have all seen as a public figure who has driven transformation at scale (and scale here is over a billion citizens). And as he spoke to us about his work and his legacy, something fascinating emerged - an entrepreneur transferring his passion, mindset, and skills to the complex and high-friction universe of policy and governance. Some pivotal moments in the talk: 🚀 Showing us the value of entrepreneurial thinking while solving big complex problems 🚀 Setting audacious goals and vision and then figuring out how to get there 🚀 Thinking about making interventions like a well-oiled and dynamic business model that brings multiple layers of stakeholders who are incentivized to get things done 🚀 Being curious, every day and in every interaction 🚀 When faced with challenges, as is a part of aspiring for big things, finding the inner competencies and the energy to keep going 🚀 This hunger and passion to make a change and create impact 🚀 And finally, the hardest pill to swallow: Saying "No" and guarding your time and energy for what is important Perhaps the more compelling question is not whether you need a business, but whether you have the courage, passion, and persistence to create impact and pursue change no matter which path you choose." #TUMSpeakerSeries #UnternehmerTUM #TUMVenturelabs #Entrepreneurship #Mindset #Leadership #Innovation #Impact #NandanNilekani #EntrepreneurialThinking

We are happy to celebrate the recent completion of this semester’s Business Plan Seminar, where talented teams brought their entrepreneurial ideas to life!
