A new season of entrepreneurial competence trainings has started at Derzhavin University. This is part of the federal project "University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform". The goal of entrepreneurial competence trainings is to help young people gain entrepreneurial skills and launch their first technological startup. The operator is the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (National Research University).
- Derzhavin University has been participating in the implementation of the federal project "University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform" since 2022. One of the tracks is entrepreneurial competence trainings, - says Natalia Kotova, Head of the Department for the Development of Youth Entrepreneurship and Project Activities at Derzhavin University. - This is a simulator that allows students to feel like a real technological entrepreneur and go through situations typical of real business in one day. These trainings are always conducted in a game form, which allows you to absorb knowledge and acquire the necessary competencies in the best possible way. After completing the trainings, students can continue working on their project in the accelerator, and then take part in the Student Startup competition.
Under the guidance of experts, including business trainers Alexey Vertuntsov, Vyacheslav Vyalkin, and Pavel Verbnyak, the students developed their own technological projects in two days. For example, a mask for recording sleep, jewelry with a changing shape, a robot suitcase, a home robot assistant, a phone for children, a smart bottle for liquid, etc.
The next trainings on entrepreneurial competencies are to be held at Derzhavin University on October 9, 10 and 31. By the end of the year, it is planned to attract about 500 students to participate in the trainings.
