Brief Description

The project is a six-month cooperation project between the International Institute (IHI) Zittau, the Founders Academy and the BPS GmbH with the aim of developing and consolidating a concept of cross-location teaching in the context of intercultural cooperation using the example of start-ups. Numerous didactic, technical and organizational aspects have to be taken into account in order to develop a teaching concept that includes the use of new/digital media as well as professional, interdisciplinary and intercultural aspects. Within the framework of the project, the further development and consolidation of a subject, media and organizational concept took place with the aim of enabling a reproducibility of the project contents at all Saxon universities.
