We give you the tools, mentors, and ecosystem to move from concept to something tangible. From the Innovation Sprint to the My Own Startup Program and the Start-Up Pre-Acceleration Program (SUPA), the EHL Innovation Hub student programs are designed to kickstart your entrepreneurial journey — all while you're still a student.

EHL Innovation Sprint

Join us for a unique challenge where you'll build real solutions, work with top experts, and pitch to industry leaders — all in just 24 hours!

The Innovation Sprint is open to students from EHL and other universities.

Start-up Pre-Acceleration Program (SUPA)

The Start-Up Pre-Acceleration Program (SUPA) supports students in turning their innovative ideas into MVPs. Over the program, participants benefit from hands-on workshops led by entrepreneurs and industry experts, personalized coaching, and practical tools to shape their entrepreneurial journey. SUPA fosters creativity, critical thinking, and real-world problem solving, culminating in a public presentation during EHL’s Open Innovation Summit or other public events and a certification ceremony recognizing the students’ commitment and progress. Whether students will pursue their project beyond the program or simply want to strengthen their entrepreneurial mindset, SUPA is a unique launchpad for future changemakers.
 
In 2024 and 2025 we had:
 
  • 30 Student Projects supported
  • 8 EHL Awards and grants given
  • 20+ Experts and mentors coaching the teams

SUPA is open to students from EHL and other universities.

My Own Start-up Program

(for EHL Students only)

Embrace your entrepreneurial aspirations with the BOSC 4 Program, "My Own Start-up" brought to you by the EHL Innovation Hub.
Designed specifically for students, this program nurtures the inventive drive of young minds eager to kickstart their own ventures in place of your BOSC 4's internship.
 
Many students envision building their startups post-graduation, but why postpone your entrepreneurial dreams? Seize the opportunity while still studying and pave the way for your future success today!
