The Jacobs Startup Competition is an international competition for aspiring student entrepreneurs world-wide, organized by students from Jacobs University alone. Each year, the event organizers welcome teams from all over the world, providing them with connections to a large network of founders, mentors, and experts, as well as present a platform for them to pitch their ideas to judges and investors.

Details of the final event:
The Jacobs Startup Competition has been happening on the beautiful campus of Jacobs University Bremen (JUB) for more than 10 years now. One of the main contributions from our university is the provision of the venue, where the magic of the actual event happens every year. It is located in the Campus Centre, which provides spacious and bright rooms for the final pitches, focused workshops, individual team preparations, and of course networking, eating and having fun.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, JSC 2021 will be online.
