This course shall benefit students interested in business venturing, consulting, or a career related to investment, including VC funds, private banks, and family offices. Since students will meet with high-profile mentors, investors, and businessmen, it shall inform them how to pursue opportunities entrepreneurially and boost their CV for applying to consulting firms, corporate and professional service providers which incline to bringing in tech-savvy and entrepreneurial new recruits. According to Creative Destruction Lab in Canada, “10% of MBA students have declined offers from companies like McKinsey & Co. and Amazon to join CDL startups.” Certainly, joining a prospective deep-tech venture could also be a career option made available through this course.
DTL is modelled on a tremendously successful international incubator program called Creative Destruction Lab. See testimonials of students who joined similar courses in this Lab:
