Abstract
The computer science and engineering curriculum usually does not provide room for entrepreneurial courses. In addition, students experience the real-world environment only through limited time and scope internships. In this paper, we propose a framework to seed and encourage entrepreneurship in students´ professional career. The goal of this framework is twofold: the students start working in real-world, experience state-of-the-art development technologies, and at the same time their entrepreneurial spirit is ignited and maintained
