About the programme
The Master in Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MIE) at ESMT Berlin is a 24-month programme in Berlin, taught in English, that starts in September. It takes you through the full innovation journey: spotting opportunities, designing and testing ideas, and turning them into real solutions, whether you want to launch a startup or drive innovation inside an established organisation. Two flexible paths focus on startup entrepreneurship or corporate innovation, and you can switch or combine them. Practical experience comes through the Ideation Bootcamp, Incubation I and II, a Corporate Innovation Project, the DEEP Tech Innovation Program, a Social Impact Project and internships of three to six months. Up to half of the content can be customised, with electives across all MSc programmes. The programme suits people aiming to work as startup founders, venture capitalists, innovation consultants or corporate innovators.
