International experts from Aalto University and major startup and venture organizations organize Startup Garden 2016 in collaboration with Korean Entrepreneurship Foundation (KEF). The starting sessions were held today.

The program is 4 weeks long including workshops, exercises, team coaching and independent team work. The 60 participants are mainly Master’s degree students from Aalto University and various Korean Universities.

The location of the team spaces is at the Aalto University campus in Otaniemi, City of Espoo. Lectures, assignments, and visits will take place at Urban Mill, Startup Sauna and Aalto Design Factory and various locations in Helsinki Capital area.

Some glimpses from the starting session for Korean participants held at Urban Mill this Morning:

Startup Summer Program has adopted a new name for itself: Startup Garden. The new name better reflects the program’s affiliation with Urban Mill and Espoo Innovation Garden, describes the flourishing of new ideas and is easy to remember.

The new online address, http://www.startupgarden.fi, is now in use. The old address, startupsummerprogram.org, will redirect visitors to the new address until the 30th of September, 2016.
