The "Interpreneurship: Entrepreneurship through an Interdisciplinary Lens" lecture series has started.

Steve and I just finished the opening lecture in our lecture series, which is step one of our teaching-related activities in this project.

The lecture series takes place Thursdays at 5pm in lecture hall 06.02 (Vorklinik). It's open to the public, so anyone interested in the entire lecture series or individual talks is welcome to swing by. Students may also take the lecture series for credits.

All of the presentations will be uploaded to the University of Graz's Moodle platform; if the presenters agree, we will also post the talks for the public here.
