Mar. 2021 - Jun. 2021ModenaAfter a 3-year successful ongoing collaboration as a Mentor for UniMore’s TACC (Training for Automotive Company Creation) program, in 2021 I had the opportunity to start working as professor for a master’s degree course called “Final Synthesis Lab 2 in Mobility Innovation”. My job was related to following students from the Architecture department course in Interface Design and to help them connecting with Engineering, Law and Economics students already participating in the TACC program. My main activity is to ensure students are applying lean start-up and prototyping techniques, as well as training them about start-up business practical knowledge. Lessons and laboratories are aimed to teach how to build their own company out of their self-presented ideas.
