IDEV - Institute of Digital Economy and Venturing
Courses
Platform economy
Successful companies such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, Alibaba, and Apple are based on digital platform business models that differ significantly from traditional pipeline models. In the Platform Economy seminar, you’ll learn about the relevance, opportunities, and challenges of the platform economy and develop your own digital business model for a company. The seminar covers the fundamentals and differences between platform and pipeline business logic, as well as theory and practical examples from the platform economy. You’ll work in teams on real-world challenges from partner companies and receive coaching from professors and company representatives. The seminar concludes with a final presentation to partner companies. The course utilizes the well-known MOOC “Platform Strategy for Business” by Marshall van Alstyne. The seminar takes place during the winter semester.

Innovation Coaching
In the Innovation Coaching seminar, you will be trained as an innovation coach and apply the knowledge you have learned directly in a real product development project. The project is carried out together with the IPEK, Institute for Product Development at KIT, and partner companies. The aim of the seminar is to enable you to support product development teams with suitable methods and to develop creative and innovative solutions for real tasks. You will learn how to analyse problems in a structured way, apply creativity and problem-solving techniques, develop product profiles and user stories and visualize them with technical prototypes. The results are presented together as a team.
