Entrepreneurship: From Start-up to Scale-up

Technion Global Network week, March 10-14-2025, titled From Start-Up to Scale-Up, will focus on the process of startup growth and scale-up. All startups plan to scale up. However, only a few of the startups succeed in scaling up to become public or private organizations or are acquired by a mature company. The course methodology will consist of academic lectures, experiential learning, and meetings with startup founders and investors. Based on academic lectures and site visits, students will work in project teams analyzing startups’ strengths, weaknesses, and growth potential. At the end of the course, the students will integrate academic knowledge with first-hand experience from site visits. Students will gain knowledge on the challenges faced by startups, and what makes some startups more successful than others.
