It's a wrap! 🌍 From September 12 to 18, the Global Entrepreneurship Summer School (GESS) took place in Munich as the last of this year's 3 locations – another week full of inspiration, innovation, and impact! 💡 Young entrepreneurial talents from all over the world came together to tackle the most pressing global challenges and develop creative, sustainable solutions to solve them. In interdisciplinary teams, the participants spent a week working on ideas for impact startups that are not only innovative but also promote long-term positive change. 🚀 The highlight of the week was the final Impact Show in the beautiful venue of our partner Steelcase, where the teams presented their business models in front of a high-profile jury. With brilliant presentations and ambitious visions, they showed that the next generation of entrepreneurs is ready to take responsibility and shape the future sustainably. 💚 A big thank you to all partners, coaches, speakers, and the jury who made all this possible – you helped turn Munich into a hotspot for global innovation during the week! Cheers to our global community and the international friendships that continue to last – see you next year!

🌍 Exciting times at the Global Entrepreneurship Summer School here in Munich! I'm thrilled to guide through this incredible journey with 24 highly motivated students tackling challenges in the areas of food, mobility, production, and waste management. Big thanks to our wonderful team, coaches and experts: Anne Schlieker, Carola Vogel, Kristina Notz, Klaus Sailer, Lara Fößmeier, Jana Hollmann, Chiara D., Laura Janssen, Filipa Muñoz Petersen, Anne Wallisch, Stephan Mey, Jai Ganesh, Bernhard Wach, Ines Anita Klöss, Johannes Rauch, Heinke Schoger, Haifeng Ling and many more - your support has been invaluable! 🙌 We kicked off with a Systems Thinking perspective, using tools like the Iceberg Model, Visioning, Backcasting, and Root Cause Analysis to frame the societal challenge the students are working on over the course of 7 days. Now, we've moved into the exciting phase of Design Thinking and Ideation.💡 Yesterday, we had an inspiring Design Thinking session with Ida Persson, and today, Dylan Sean Gruner from CareMates is coaching us through the Ideation process, leading the students to create impactful solutions. In the coming days, the focus will shift to Business Modelling and Impact Management, all leading up to the Impact Show on Wednesday, where the teams will present their ideas to an audience of experts in the field of Impact Entrepreneurship! 🚀 I'm really looking forward to seeing the innovative solutions that will come out of this process! GESS is the international flagship program of the Social Entrepreneurship Akademie. SEA runs this initiative in close collaboration with Hochschule München, Hochschule Landshut, Technische Universität München and globally leading universities such as the School of Economics and Management, Tongji University, Instituto de Emprendimiento Eugenio Garza Lagüera of Tecnológico de Monterrey, LifeCo UnLtd SA Group, Steelcase and many more partners.
