Developing techno-preneurship program at the Center for Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership (CIEL), School of Business and Management (SBM), Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), Indonesia

School of Business and Management (SBM) at Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) was established in 2003 partly to take advantages of the strong programs at ITB in Science and Engineering and bring its technology assets to commercialization. In 2004, SBM has developed a curriculum offering a course in entrepreneurship and a 3-course series for SBM-only students to plan, run a business, and to do a community service using the profits made. It has been acknowledged as an innovative approach in educating entrepreneurs. Learning from the curriculum implementation for the last 4 years has led us to develop a more innovative program, called Entrepreneurship Track (e-Track). This program offers students from all schools and faculties in the university to establish real businesses in the last year of their study. This program is intended to mix students from various disciplines to work together and establish technology-based businesses. The paper records lessons learned and offers an alternative in educating techno-preneurs. It discusses not only the curriculum, but also infrastructures needed to facilitate its implementation.
