Your development
The backbone of the IESEG semester is the development of a real startup project. Progress is monitored weekly through important milestones such as customer interactions, incubator applications, stakeholders enrolment, and other checkpoints that mimic the trajectory of entrepreneurs. The semester is capped by a hackathon where students consult a real start-up in real time.
During your second semester at Loughborough University London, our dedicated Future Space team provides a range of activities and support to develop your general skills and help you develop your employability. This includes not only career advice, CV writing sessions, and mock assessment centres, but also practitioner and alumni events (e.g. hackathons)
