Professional Development Workshops (PDWs) are workshops to share knowledge and expertise and foster practical, professional and intellectual skills of participants. Since 2015, ECSB has offered PDWs as a part of the pre-conference day of RENT Conference but due to COVID-19, there will be virtual PDWs organised in 2020-2021.
The first PDW for the autumn “Developing Responsible and Sustainable Innovations in Entrepreneurship Education – Introducing the Sandbox Approach” will be organised virtually on 11 November 2020 at 3-5 pm (CET) .
Workshop Objectives
- Introduce the Sandbox Approach
- Experience the efficiency of structured open innovation processes as well as how innovation communities function by accounting for a multitude of perspectives
- Reflect on challenges that hinder innovativeness in everyday work and develop first ideas and more comprehensive solutions for these challenges
- Discuss ideas to combine open innovation processes with innovation communities and reflecting on one’s own role within these processes/communities
- Reflect on own roles as researchers and educators to foster responsible and sustainable innovation
- Discuss the transfer of this learning experience to other contexts in which sustainable innovations within certain constraints are crucial
