The World’s First Business School
The World’s First Business School was established in Paris by a group
of economic scholars and businessmen on 1st
December. Even on its debut,
ESCP Europe’s Global Perspective was well established, with one third of its
students coming from an international background.
On 5th
April, the concept of ESCP Europe as a multi-campus business
school was born. The inauguration of campuses in the United Kingdom
and in Germany soon followed, each marking a significant milestone in
cementing the School’s strong European Identity.
The School opened its fourth campus in Madrid.
ESCP Europe took up residence in Italy with a fifth campus in Torino.
ESCP Europe opens a sixth campus in Warsaw.

Who wants to be a better entrepreneur?
“The entrepreneur shifts economic resources out of an area of lower and into an area
of higher productivity and greater yield,” said Jean-Baptiste Say, economist and
co-founder of ESCP Europe ( est. 1819 ), more than 200 years ago. Ever since that day,
dedication to entrepreneurship has been one of the key motivators for ESCP Europe.
It is one of our priorities to foster and accommodate today’s ambitious entrepreneurial
efforts with more courses and specialisations in the fields of Entrepreneurship,
Innovation and Creation.
Through UNTERNEHMERSCHULE — our Entrepreneurial Leadership Programme — 
we have created a programme which will enable participants to step successfully into
Say’s footsteps. It offers entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and family business leaders the
necessary tools and concepts as well as the mindset and environment to take on new
challenges successfully in a constantly changing world.
The programme has been designed with Unternehmer Club Berlin, an organisation
of successful entrepreneurs and investors from businesses such as eBay, Amazon,
Bigpoint, betterplace.org, ProSiebenSat1 Games, Deutsche Telekom and Axel Springer.
It combines experience gained from different accelerator programmes and the latest
results in management research. Participants work with ESCP Europe professors as
well as with entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs rooted in a very successful specific
activity. This co-teaching environment creates a hands-on learning atmosphere and
makes the programme unique. Each participant’s individual needs are taken into
account, and an ever-growing network offers cutting edge support and inspiration.
Are you ready for an excellent opportunity to leverage your business and
broaden your horizon through a unique learning experience?
Join us on your way to becoming a better entrepreneur!
Sincerely,
Marion Festing
Campus Director ESCP Europe Berlin
Welcome to
Unternehmerschule
The Entrepreneurial Leadership Programme for entrepreneurs,
intrapreneurs and family business leaders
At the ESCP Europe Chair of Entrepreneurship
( ChaireEEE ) we truly believe in blending entrepreneurial
experience with scientific rigour. Founded in 2007 by
former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin and
with the support of EY and the ESCP Europe Foundation,
the ChaireEEE empowers, inspires, and accompanies
tomorrow’s entrepreneurs.
As academic directors of the Unternehmerschule
programme we want to make our experiences, network
and research available to all participants and help them
to accelerate their projects.
Martin Kupp | René Mauer
Academic Directors of UNTERNEHMERSCHULE
As entrepreneurs we felt that something was missing.
Of course there were fantastic management schools —
some focusing on starting up new ventures and some
extremely strong in managing the psychological aspects
of family businesses — but nothing was really tailor-
made to the demands of entrepreneurs combining the
academic world with real entrepreneurial life. This was
why we developed Unternehmerschule with ESCP
Europe: a place that helps entrepreneurs — as diverse
as they might be — to become better business people for
themselves, for their companies and for society.
Marc Sasserath | Jörg Rheinboldt
Unternehmer Club Berlin
5unternehmerschule
Every economy needs entrepreneurs to create companies,
products, jobs and value. But courageous entrepreneurs often
fail as start-ups or as the drivers of innovative initiatives within
established companies. Unternehmerschule sets out to
improve the likelihood of these entrepreneurs’ success by
creating a safe practice ground in which intrapreneurs, start-up
entrepreneurs and family business managers can work on their
ideas, turn these ideas into reality, learn about and improve their
ideas quickly and then grow their projects on a European level.
Target Group
The UNTERNEHMERSCHULE
programme welcomes
participants from diverse
educational backgrounds
who have already gained
a minimum of three years’
professional experience.
This experience could have
been gained as an entre-
preneur, intrapreneur or
business developer within
a large company or as the
manager of a family busi-
ness. The more diverse the
backgrounds and careers
of the participants, the
better they can learn from
each other and build a
sustainable network — a key
element of the programme.

IDEATE, JUMP, MANAGE, and
GROW are the four steps to building
successful projects, and these
are also the four modules of
UNTERNEHMERSCHULE. The
modules take place over four week-
ends ( from Thursday to Saturday )
between April and November. The
IDEATE, MANAGE and GROW modules
take place in Berlin, while the JUMP
module is taught in Paris.
7unternehmerschule
Ideate
The first module is all about getting and
shaping your initial ideas into a project.
During the first three days we will hone
your project by challenging, twisting and
shaping your initial ideas. We will apply
a wide variety of tools like effectuation,
design-thinking and customer discovery.
Furthermore, we visit start-ups and agile
companies. We have the opportunity to
discuss with them how they were built
and how they developed and shaped their
ideas over time. At the end of module
1 you should have torn your ideas into
pieces and put them back together with
many new ideas.
Concepts & tools
Effectuation

The second module is all about moving
your idea forward by challenging
yourself, your role and your ability as the
lead story teller.
It is time to put your ideas to the test.
And we mean this quite literally! Why do
you do this project, how can you make a
difference, what leadership preferences
do you have and how can you use them
best? We will explore how stories will
help you to build a powerful identity and
brand for your project.

The third module is all about fine-tuning
your project.
To develop your project further we explore
the role of strategy. You learn methods
and principles entrepreneurs employ in
situations of uncertainty. We will also
discuss the fundamentals of finance and
deepen your skills as a negotiator and
mediator.

The last module is about scaling your
project.
What are the important levers to bring
your project to the next level? We discuss
what it takes to grow your business
internationally and we examine a
number of leadership issues connected
with growth, such as the role of ethics,
diversity and responsibility. Furthermore
we will learn about the different
marketing instruments, especially the
potential of digital marketing.

At Unternehmerschule we believe that the best learning
comes through doing. This is when we take action and reflect
upon our successes and mistakes. This is why we created a
programme with three core elements — Project-Based Learning,
Tandem Teaching & Mentoring — each supporting this mindset
and engaging participants in different ways, but always action-
oriented and on safe practice grounds. Furthermore, we believe
that learning takes place in various inspiring settings, which is
why we take participants to our campuses in Berlin and Paris as
well as to different start-ups, innovation centres, incubators and
accelerators.
How — 
methods 
Project-based Learning
Learning by doing is at the heart of UNTERNEH-
MERSCHULE. Therefore, we ask the candidates to
apply with a project, that they want to accelerate
during the programme. This can be an innovative
product or process within a larger context such as
an existing company or a family business, an idea
for a potential start-up or an existing start-up in a
very early phase. Participants have the time to work
on their project in each of the modules and improve
them by working on the idea ( ideate ), taking the
first steps (jump), learning and improving ( man-
age ) and reaching the next level ( grow ).
With my project “Proxi-
mity Marketing” I want to
enable brick-and-mortar
store operators, brands and
­advertisers to interact with
local customers at the right
time, in the right place and
with relevant information.
The Lean Startup- & Design
Thinking tools as well as the
community and mentor‘s
network have especially
helped me to develop a
scalable business model.

Mentoring and Networking
Unternehmerschule
fosters each participant’s
entrepreneurial personality and
network. Throughout the
programme participants are
guided by an experienced
mentor, who helps them raise
self-awareness and develop
their projects. The more diverse
the backgrounds and careers of
the participants, the better they
can learn from each other and
build a sustainable network — a
key element of the programme.
For me one of the core
benefits of the program is the
incredible mentor network
that we are exposed to. Not
only do we have access to our
personal mentor but a mentor
network of more than 20
­experienced serial
entrepreneurs and influential
intrapreneurs who are
offering support in developing
our project.

Tandem teaching approach
Each module is presented through a tandem teaching
approach meaning that members of ECSP Europe’s
academic faculty are teaching together with
experienced practioners. This co-teaching method
offers a rich source of fruitful discussions. Academic
research is challenged for its practicability and
entrepreneurial experience is challenged by rigorous
research insights. Last but not least, this also creates a
wide network in both worlds and guarantees a multi-
perspective learning environment.
I especially enjoy the
Tandem Teaching concept.
Every session provides me
with relevant background
knowledge and practical tools
I can share with my team to
get my project implemented
into our business.

What 
experts say
Alexander Sixt
Family business holder, Managing Director,
 Head of Corporate Development, Central
Purchasing and Workflow management at
Sixt AG
“The leader of a family business demands the
ability to seize chances while keeping up the
approved business model. That’s one of the
main challenges in a family business. Gro-
wing into a family business sometimes needs
external support. Family business leaders will
benefit from UNTERNEHMERSCHULE by obtai-
ning insights into challenging business cases
and through a top-class network. It is what you
need to develop into a responsible leader much
quicker.”
Ulrich Schmitz
Intrapreneur and CTO of Axel Springer SE
“A successful entrepreneur needs talent, ap-
plicable methods, tools and the right timing.
Entrepreneurial talent often exists naturally;
however, it needs to be developed in practice.
As such, Unternehmerschule offers the
chance to do so!”
Nicolas Gaume
Serial Media & Game Entrepreneur
“Unternehmerschule is providing the tools
to really accelerate the development of your
business ideas and to take you further — not
within years, but within months.”
Jan Bohl
CFO and Co-Owner of Ableton
“For me entrepreneurship is about not only tur-
ning an opportunity into a successful business
but also the drive to scale this business into
something big and meaningful. I truly believe
that UNTERNEHMERSCHULE will be the place
where these skills can be acquired.”
Marcus HipP
CEO of BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt
“We do not need to reinvent the wheel, but
together we can considerably improve the tech-
nology in some areas if we want to do business
with more values and be successful and res-
ponsible leaders — the tools for that are taught
and tested at Unternehmerschule.”
Uli Huener
Head of Innovation Management,
EnBW AG
„The business model in the energy sector has
hardly changed in the past 30 years. For EnBW
it is one of the big challenges – and at the same
time chances – to identify and extend new
businesses through entrepreneurial talent and
with entrepreneurial spirit. With the UNTER-
NEHMERSCHULE programme we have found
a good way to work on and refill our new busi-
ness model ideas.“

  • 2. 2 escp europe escp europe at a glance The World’s First Business School The World’s First Business School was established in Paris by a group of economic scholars and businessmen on 1st December. Even on its debut, ESCP Europe’s Global Perspective was well established, with one third of its students coming from an international background. On 5th April, the concept of ESCP Europe as a multi-campus business school was born. The inauguration of campuses in the United Kingdom and in Germany soon followed, each marking a significant milestone in cementing the School’s strong European Identity. The School opened its fourth campus in Madrid. ESCP Europe took up residence in Italy with a fifth campus in Torino. ESCP Europe opens a sixth campus in Warsaw. 1819 1973 1988 2004 2015 SIXESCP Europe campuses in Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Torino 4,000students representing 90 nationalities 5,000managers and executives in training every year academic alliances worldwide 10045,000graduates in key positions in over 150 countries 130research-active professors representing over 20 nationalities affiliate faculty members eighty 3Equis, Amba, AACSB Triple-Crown Accredited with international quality labels:

  • 4. 4 escp europe Who wants to be a better entrepreneur? “The entrepreneur shifts economic resources out of an area of lower and into an area of higher productivity and greater yield,” said Jean-Baptiste Say, economist and co-founder of ESCP Europe ( est. 1819 ), more than 200 years ago. Ever since that day, dedication to entrepreneurship has been one of the key motivators for ESCP Europe. It is one of our priorities to foster and accommodate today’s ambitious entrepreneurial efforts with more courses and specialisations in the fields of Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Creation. Through UNTERNEHMERSCHULE — our Entrepreneurial Leadership Programme —  we have created a programme which will enable participants to step successfully into Say’s footsteps. It offers entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and family business leaders the necessary tools and concepts as well as the mindset and environment to take on new challenges successfully in a constantly changing world. The programme has been designed with Unternehmer Club Berlin, an organisation of successful entrepreneurs and investors from businesses such as eBay, Amazon, Bigpoint, betterplace.org, ProSiebenSat1 Games, Deutsche Telekom and Axel Springer. It combines experience gained from different accelerator programmes and the latest results in management research. Participants work with ESCP Europe professors as well as with entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs rooted in a very successful specific activity. This co-teaching environment creates a hands-on learning atmosphere and makes the programme unique. Each participant’s individual needs are taken into account, and an ever-growing network offers cutting edge support and inspiration. Are you ready for an excellent opportunity to leverage your business and broaden your horizon through a unique learning experience? Join us on your way to becoming a better entrepreneur! Sincerely, Marion Festing Campus Director ESCP Europe Berlin Welcome to Unternehmerschule The Entrepreneurial Leadership Programme for entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and family business leaders At the ESCP Europe Chair of Entrepreneurship ( ChaireEEE ) we truly believe in blending entrepreneurial experience with scientific rigour. Founded in 2007 by former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin and with the support of EY and the ESCP Europe Foundation, the ChaireEEE empowers, inspires, and accompanies tomorrow’s entrepreneurs. As academic directors of the Unternehmerschule programme we want to make our experiences, network and research available to all participants and help them to accelerate their projects. Martin Kupp | René Mauer Academic Directors of UNTERNEHMERSCHULE As entrepreneurs we felt that something was missing. Of course there were fantastic management schools — some focusing on starting up new ventures and some extremely strong in managing the psychological aspects of family businesses — but nothing was really tailor- made to the demands of entrepreneurs combining the academic world with real entrepreneurial life. This was why we developed Unternehmerschule with ESCP Europe: a place that helps entrepreneurs — as diverse as they might be — to become better business people for themselves, for their companies and for society. Marc Sasserath | Jörg Rheinboldt Unternehmer Club Berlin
  • 5. 5unternehmerschule Every economy needs entrepreneurs to create companies, products, jobs and value. But courageous entrepreneurs often fail as start-ups or as the drivers of innovative initiatives within established companies. Unternehmerschule sets out to improve the likelihood of these entrepreneurs’ success by creating a safe practice ground in which intrapreneurs, start-up entrepreneurs and family business managers can work on their ideas, turn these ideas into reality, learn about and improve their ideas quickly and then grow their projects on a European level. Target Group The UNTERNEHMERSCHULE programme welcomes participants from diverse educational backgrounds who have already gained a minimum of three years’ professional experience. This experience could have been gained as an entre- preneur, intrapreneur or business developer within a large company or as the manager of a family busi- ness. The more diverse the backgrounds and careers of the participants, the better they can learn from each other and build a sustainable network — a key element of the programme. what —  Content & Target group We have had some notable experiences. The programme has led to more innovation within our company. Our selected participants at UNTERNEHMERSCHULE have all refined their business ideas through reflection with a number of diverse participants and the support of a mentor. Thymian Bussemer Grundsatzabteilung Konzern Personal, Volkswagen AG We are sending young professionals from our Entrepreneur in Residence Program to UNTER- NEHMERSCHULE. The programme connects them to a strong entrepreneurial network and helps them turn their ideas into business models. Dominik Dommick CEO Payback GmbH

The modules take place over four week- ends ( from Thursday to Saturday ) between April and November. The IDEATE, MANAGE and GROW modules take place in Berlin, while the JUMP module is taught in Paris.
  • 7. 7unternehmerschule Ideate The first module is all about getting and shaping your initial ideas into a project. During the first three days we will hone your project by challenging, twisting and shaping your initial ideas. We will apply a wide variety of tools like effectuation, design-thinking and customer discovery. Furthermore, we visit start-ups and agile companies. We have the opportunity to discuss with them how they were built and how they developed and shaped their ideas over time. At the end of module 1 you should have torn your ideas into pieces and put them back together with many new ideas. Concepts & tools Effectuation Design-Thinking Customer Discovery jump The second module is all about moving your idea forward by challenging yourself, your role and your ability as the lead story teller. It is time to put your ideas to the test. And we mean this quite literally! Why do you do this project, how can you make a difference, what leadership preferences do you have and how can you use them best? We will explore how stories will help you to build a powerful identity and brand for your project. Concepts & tools Tiger Riding MBTI Brand Matrix Manage The third module is all about fine-tuning your project. To develop your project further we explore the role of strategy. You learn methods and principles entrepreneurs employ in situations of uncertainty. We will also discuss the fundamentals of finance and deepen your skills as a negotiator and mediator. Concepts & tools Entrepreneurial Strategy Legal & Finance Negotiating, Mediating & Closing Grow The last module is about scaling your project. What are the important levers to bring your project to the next level? We discuss what it takes to grow your business internationally and we examine a number of leadership issues connected with growth, such as the role of ethics, diversity and responsibility. Furthermore we will learn about the different marketing instruments, especially the potential of digital marketing. Concepts & tools Growing & Scaling Marketing Toolbox Responsible Leadership Especially supporting was the structure of UNTERNEHMERSCHULE in modules.

  • 8. 8 escp europe What —  Take home values  The objective of UNTERNEHMERSCHULE is to create a safe and agile learning environment to take your projects from idea to implementation, improvement and growth in four intense modules. Access to ESCP Europe's network through participants, faculty, mentors and beyond · Feedback in a safe and agile environment from professionals and outsiders · Prototyping your project idea and developing experiences to test your assumptions in a fast pace · Operationalising strategies through effective and efficient methods · Applying design-thinking principles to generate ideas · Experiencing triggers and barriers for individual and collective creativity · Using the brand as the guiding principle around which all communication is focused · Deepening your knowledge of finance fundamentals · Identifying and managing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) · Building and maintaining productive teams, organisations and workflows With the UNTERNEHMERSCHULE tools and professors I assessed and drove my project forward pretty quickly. It was a very inspiring and dynamic environment! Frank Henrich / participant Unternehmerschule 2015 BearingPoint
  • 9. 9unternehmerschule At Unternehmerschule we believe that the best learning comes through doing. This is when we take action and reflect upon our successes and mistakes. This is why we created a programme with three core elements — Project-Based Learning, Tandem Teaching & Mentoring — each supporting this mindset and engaging participants in different ways, but always action- oriented and on safe practice grounds. Furthermore, we believe that learning takes place in various inspiring settings, which is why we take participants to our campuses in Berlin and Paris as well as to different start-ups, innovation centres, incubators and accelerators. How —  methods  Project-based Learning Learning by doing is at the heart of UNTERNEH- MERSCHULE. Therefore, we ask the candidates to apply with a project, that they want to accelerate during the programme. This can be an innovative product or process within a larger context such as an existing company or a family business, an idea for a potential start-up or an existing start-up in a very early phase. Participants have the time to work on their project in each of the modules and improve them by working on the idea ( ideate ), taking the first steps (jump), learning and improving ( man- age ) and reaching the next level ( grow ). With my project “Proxi- mity Marketing” I want to enable brick-and-mortar store operators, brands and ­advertisers to interact with local customers at the right time, in the right place and with relevant information. The Lean Startup- & Design Thinking tools as well as the community and mentor‘s network have especially helped me to develop a scalable business model. Dr. Miralem Gazibegović participant Unternehmerschule 2014 Deutsche Telekom AG Examples of projects 2nd Developing a new business model for light contracting is at the heart of this project, which aims at improving the quality of lighting and reducing energy costs by 70 percent. 1st This project deals with establishing a new standard for fair trade in the coffee business. A new premium coffee brand is being introduced with a “Direct Fair Trade” certificate through media co-operation and innovative listing concepts. 3rd In order to implement the Offline Longtail topic within this company, an approved model from the U.S. is being transferred to Germany within this project. It is also focusing on the mobile market.
  • 10. 10 escp europe Throughout the modules of UNTERNEHMERSCHULE, I got in contact with a variety of professionals and experts from different business backgrounds. It was a great opportunity to grow and enrich my network! Luc Meriochaud / participant Unternehmerschule 2015 deutsche Bank Mentoring and Networking Unternehmerschule fosters each participant’s entrepreneurial personality and network. Throughout the programme participants are guided by an experienced mentor, who helps them raise self-awareness and develop their projects. The more diverse the backgrounds and careers of the participants, the better they can learn from each other and build a sustainable network — a key element of the programme. For me one of the core benefits of the program is the incredible mentor network that we are exposed to. Not only do we have access to our personal mentor but a mentor network of more than 20 ­experienced serial entrepreneurs and influential intrapreneurs who are offering support in developing our project.  Claudius Hundt / participant Unter-nehmerschule 2014 EnBW Ag Tandem teaching approach Each module is presented through a tandem teaching approach meaning that members of ECSP Europe’s academic faculty are teaching together with experienced practioners. This co-teaching method offers a rich source of fruitful discussions. Academic research is challenged for its practicability and entrepreneurial experience is challenged by rigorous research insights. Last but not least, this also creates a wide network in both worlds and guarantees a multi- perspective learning environment. I especially enjoy the Tandem Teaching concept. Every session provides me with relevant background knowledge and practical tools I can share with my team to get my project implemented into our business.

That’s one of the main challenges in a family business. Gro- wing into a family business sometimes needs external support. Family business leaders will benefit from UNTERNEHMERSCHULE by obtai- ning insights into challenging business cases and through a top-class network. It is what you need to develop into a responsible leader much quicker.” Ulrich Schmitz Intrapreneur and CTO of Axel Springer SE “A successful entrepreneur needs talent, ap- plicable methods, tools and the right timing. Entrepreneurial talent often exists naturally; however, it needs to be developed in practice. As such, Unternehmerschule offers the chance to do so!” Nicolas Gaume Serial Media & Game Entrepreneur “Unternehmerschule is providing the tools to really accelerate the development of your business ideas and to take you further — not within years, but within months.” Jan Bohl CFO and Co-Owner of Ableton “For me entrepreneurship is about not only tur- ning an opportunity into a successful business but also the drive to scale this business into something big and meaningful. I truly believe that UNTERNEHMERSCHULE will be the place where these skills can be acquired.” Marcus HipP CEO of BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt “We do not need to reinvent the wheel, but together we can considerably improve the tech- nology in some areas if we want to do business with more values and be successful and res- ponsible leaders — the tools for that are taught and tested at Unternehmerschule.” Uli Huener Head of Innovation Management, EnBW AG „The business model in the energy sector has hardly changed in the past 30 years. For EnBW it is one of the big challenges – and at the same time chances – to identify and extend new businesses through entrepreneurial talent and with entrepreneurial spirit. With the UNTER- NEHMERSCHULE programme we have found a good way to work on and refill our new busi- ness model ideas.“
