Over the past few weeks, the trainers of Creative Spark – Higher Education Enterprise Programme which supports international university and institutional partnerships to develop enterprise skills and creative economy and is developed jointly with Kingston University (London) – have conducted successful trainings in many Ukrainian cities.
In particular, the Tech StartUp School team visited Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Lutsk, Ternopil, Kyiv, Izmail, Mykolaiv, Shostka and Odesa where participants learned how to work on their own projects and pitch their ideas. They learned to develop their creative thinking, work on their own ideas and learned about financial, marketing and other components which are needed when developing a project.
The study within the framework of the programme takes place in a format of three meetings. At first, there is a presentation meeting, where trainers share recommendations, tips, and life hacks that can help find ideas. Thereafter, there is a two-day training camp with a lot of practical cases and business games. The outcome of the participants training is pitchings of their own ideas and developments that will take place in June.
