Over the course of the winter semester, the student teams developed business ideas using the design thinking method and tested them using prototypes.

In a pitch format, the students convincingly presented and discussed their results in front of an expert jury consisting of Quynh Duong Phuong (University of Bremen), Prof. Dr. Martin Holi (Bremen University of Applied Sciences) and Lars Kesseler (ASTRAIT).

The jury awarded the team #HandwerkHero for the best business idea, which includes a do-it-yourself platform for household repairs. The jury also honored the professional presentation performance of the InCase team, which developed the idea of an AI-based support tool for legal advisors. The teams Global2Connect, an HR platform for the targeted recruitment of foreign specialists, and Rekhen, a laundry service with delivery service, also provided exciting insights into their concepts.

Our special thanks go to the course participants for their successful presentations, the jury for their dedicated feedback and lecturer Thomas Baron for supervising the student teams.
