InCube

The world faces many complex problems that heavily impact the way individuals, companies and institutions interact. Entrepreneurship can help address some of these challenges by driving innovative and unprecedented solutions. Universities are in a unique position to inspire their students to acknowledge real-world problems with an entrepreneurial perspective. Providing a dynamic environment and cooperating closely with corporate partners are necessary prerequisites to realize this vision.

InCube helps to bridge this gap, by bringing together universities, students and companies in an inspiring environment. Working in a confined place provides a special setting where innovative ideas are proposed, planned and executed by driven students. The complimentary educational journey ensures that students are equipped with the proper methodologies, tools and skills to evolve an abstract idea into a prototype that they can develop further.

Launch

Launch by ETH Entrepreneur Club embraces all the three foundational pillars –inspire, educate, accelerate– of the ETH EC in one single flagship event. Through Launch, it is our vision to break through exclusivity and make entrepreneurial resources accessible. On the 15th of October 2021 at Stage One Oerlikon, the vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem of ETH, Zürich, and beyond will be made tangible and reachable to those that dare to dream – and do it. This is Zurich’s first ever event that brings together students, startups, professors and professionals under one roof to engage in an intergenerational and multidisciplinary debate on what entrepreneurship is all about – and how to leverage the vast opportunities surrounding us every single day to bring our ideas to orbit. Launch provides an immersive experience through Workshops, Live Pitch Competition of the InCube Challenge 2021, Panel Discussions, each dealing with a plethora of topics focusing on cutting-edge technologies to how to make a business model future-fit.
