As part of the Mentoring and Business Plan Development Programme promoted by the University of Évora, we were given the task of creating an entrepreneurial programme focused on developing a business plan among student researchers with innovative ideas.
Hora das Palavras led the development of the Business Mentoring Programme, including the accompaniment of all the entrepreneurs, the development of business diagnoses, as well as the selection and management of specialist mentors in the different areas required.
Business strategy, product creation, communication, sustainability, legal support, applications for incentive schemes and patent registration were some of the areas that comprised the mentoring process provided.
The aim of this programme was to enable students to develop innovative business plans on their own, transforming their research into real business models. It also served as a meeting point for budding student entrepreneurs and is an integral part of the Startup PhD project, promoted by the University of Évora and co-funded by ALENTEJO2020.
