Bodo Brückner, Eva-Maria Gottmann and Christian Tidona lead a multidisciplinary team with entrepreneurial and self-employment background.
Since 2009 they are teaching life science Master students (and since last year also PhDs) at Heidelberg University how to develop and present a business idea - the program is called "Biotech Entrepreneurship Training Program" (BETP). In 2013 BioMed X Innovation Center, BioRN Cluster Management and Heidelberg University established the lectures series "Biotech Entrepreneurship and Leadership Lectures" (BELL) where successful entrepreneurs and business leaders share their experiences with students and young professionals.
As the number of participants is increasing, the team decided to create this website in order to bundle their entrepreneurship activities at www.biotech-entrepreneurship.com.
