Experimentation for Sustainable Value Propositions (Seminar)

Inhalt: Have you ever wondered how you could turn your idea for alleviating a sustainability challenge into a fleshed-out solution desired by stakeholders? This seminar will teach the concept of sustainable business models (SBMs) and value propositions, and their role for sustainable entrepreneurship through an action-oriented approach. You will learn how to experiment with value propositions to avoid the caveats of rigid business planning and incorrect assumptions. The interdisciplinary student groups will develop their own ideas for addressing sustainability challenges into value propositions, test these in the field and reflect on their learning over the course of the seminar. You will present and discuss your projects in class frequently. Additionally, you will need to reflect on your individual progress as well as the social, ecological, economic, and ethical implications of your work. You will apply scientific knowledge on sustainable entrepreneurship, business experimentation and sustainable value propositions to respond to societal challenges. As business experimentation benefits greatly from diverse skillsets and perspectives, the teams will be able to complement and enrich each other. For more information, you can check out the course evaluation of past iterations. This course may be optionally completed as part of the Leuphana Sustainable Entrepreneurship Certificate (LSEC).
