bench2biz: Unique workshop for aspiring entrepreneurs in science & technology

Do you have an innovative idea in science or technology and wonder if it could grow into a successful start-up? The bench2biz Workshop helps you refine your concept, assess market potential, and take the first steps toward commercialization.

The bench2biz Workshop is based on the successful Pre-Seed Workshop created in 2004 in the USA. Since then, it has helped entrepreneurs transform early-stage ideas into viable concepts with real business potential. The workshop targets students, young researchers, and motivated innovators eager to test the viability of their ideas and gain essential entrepreneurial skills quickly. Participation is selective—only projects with real potential are chosen.

Here’s what you can expect:
In the bench2biz Workshop, you will develop your high-tech idea in a realistic start-up simulation. Together with experienced professionals from business, technology, finance, law, and management, you will work on 20 key questions, receive honest feedback, and learn how to realistically assess the market, technology, and business model.
The workshop combines practical methods, individual support, and valuable networking opportunities, enabling you to turn your idea into a solid concept and take the next step toward your start-up – structured, focused, and risk-free.
