SMARTUP! is a student initiative at WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management in Vallendar, Germany, with the aim of giving students versatile insights into the early stages of entrepreneurship. We organize a variety of events, including company tours across Germany, on-campus workshops, and networking fairs to connect with potential co-founders from other universities.
For over 30 years, WHU students and alumni have created thousands of startups, some of which have become household names across the globe. The WHU Entrepreneurship Center was established to support this tradition through programs and partnerships with corporates, startups, investors, alumni and students from Vallendar to Düsseldorf to Berlin, and beyond!
