Whether you just want to explore an idea or you’re already building a business, as a Chalmers student you can get free, personal coaching to move forward.
Entrepreneurship at Chalmers is about more than starting a company. It’s a way of thinking and working that not only applies to running a startup, but also to student projects, to initiatives with societal or environmental goals and to innovation within large organizations - known as intrapreneurship.
Open to all students
The coaching is open to students from all programmes and disciplines. You are welcome regardless of whether you are just exploring a challenge or problem you find interesting, have a concrete idea you want to develop or already have your first customers and want guidance on business strategy.
What you can get help with
In a coaching session, you can get support tailored to your needs.
For example:
- Idea Development – exploring, evaluating, and developing your idea
- Planning – structuring next steps and using suitable tools
- Target Group & Customer – identifying audience, needs, and customers
- Support & Guidance – moral support and navigating uncertainty
- Business Model – creating business and value models
- Funding & Prototyping – identifying opportunities for financing and prototyping
- Intellectual Property – understanding IP and other key assets
- Connecting – linking you with:
o Industry partners
o Incubators and support programmes
o Experts and researchers
o Networks, events and entrepreneurial offers
o Market research support
If you have an idea or are just curious and want to learn more - book a meeting or come by an event!

Sometimes, a conversation is the best way to move forward. The meetings are informal and based on your needs and interests. You are welcome to come alone or together with a friend or project partner.
What is discussed in these meetings is not disclosed without your consent. Sessions are held in English or Swedish, depending on your preference. There are no requirements to prepare anything in advance – it’s easy to get started.
