TRAIN -THE-TRAINER programme: entrepreneurship and innovation
From 12–16 May 2025, Innovation Centre Denmark in Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) successfully hosted a five-day train-the-trainer programme dedicated to entrepreneurship, innovation and technology in Southern Germany.
The initiative offered a unique opportunity for participants to gain first-hand insight into the Southern German innovation ecosystem, to establish new networks, and to learn from leading research organisations, start-ups and companies in Munich.
Programme Highlights
The programme combined an introduction to the Bavarian innovation landscape with an intensive train-the-trainer course. Activities included networking sessions, meetings with key companies and ecosystem players, as well as entrepreneurship modules delivered by UnternehmerTUM Academy for Innovators.
Participants:
A total of 20 trainers and educators from entrepreneurship centres at Danish universities, research and technology organisations (RTOs) and university colleges, together with 10–15 German peers, participated in the programme. The exchange enabled participants to gather inspiration, knowledge and practical collaboration models that they could integrate into their daily work with students, researchers and entrepreneurs.
Organisers and Funding:
The programme was organised by Innovation Centre Denmark in Munich in close collaboration with UnternehmerTUM Academy for Innovators and was funded by the Otto Mønsted Foundation.
