A practical, hands-on program designed specifically to inspire and support PhD and postgraduate students interested in entrepreneurship and innovation.
Whether you want to commercialise your research, increase its impact, become an academic, launch a business or become an intrapreneur from within an organisation, entrepreneurship skills are going to be useful for whichever path you pursue.
We offer six weekly workshops focused on developing and applying entrepreneurial and agile thinking to your research while being mentored and networking with experienced PhD and postgraduate innovators.
Applications to PhD and Postgrad Unlimited are now closed.
