Digital entrepreneurship innovation lab 2022

The Digital ilab was first run as a pilot programme of the University of Vienna coordinated by the Research Network Data Science and the DLE Research Services and Career Development in 2022. 

During the programme, participants worked in teams to develop their entrepreneurial idea or solution to a challenge related to the sustainable development goals.

The ilab was articulated in two phases; access to the second phase was granted to four teams through a pitch competition.
