<p dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; text-align: justify;">During “Semana de la innovación” in the university students present their startups and the projects they developed during the semester to other students. Unfortunately the majority of these projects stay in an initial phase and do not transcend to become a real venture due to the lack of support and funding. We want to bring investors that could be interested in these opportunities and will offer funding and support for students to build and take forward their venture.</span></span></p>

The idea will be to open an elective course that helps entrepreneurs develop and test their idea in the real world. The course will be open for everyone. We think if students have some sort of orientation and support from experts there is a higher probability that the projects will succeed or at least get to the phase of pursue or spin out.</span></span></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-align: justify;"></p>

Although this effort has been helpful and successful in some courses, it is common that the ideas teachers have and think will improve the course are not attractive for students. We think it is different when adults ideate for students than when the students are involved in the process of innovation. By creating spaces in which teachers and students can work and think together in innovative solutions and changes for the courses, the needs and tastes of students will be really address and the changes in the courses could be more successful.</span></span></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-align: justify;"></p>
