Why take this course?
Have you been thinking of a food related idea or project that you want to pursue, feeling excited and inexperienced about it at the same time? A prototyping mindset will help you to turn your idea into a solid business- or project plan. This mindset helped hundreds of people in different kinds of food projects and businesses to work through the stage that you are in right now. We have developed this course for a broad range of food professionals – people working in the food sector – that want to engage with the challenges of a changing food system.
In this course, we help you easily develop your food idea. We take you through a step by step approach and encourage you to make important strategic decisions, to make sure that you and your idea are on the right track.
Prototyping is a lifelong skill that will prove to be applicable to multiple ideas and challenges you might come across.
