Stage Two established the academic round tables for academic partners: representatives from university-affiliated entrepreneurship centers, research chairs, incubators and more. These events provide a 2 hour online or offline format to get to know each other better, introduce one of the participating universities, and provide some interesting insights into a hot topic from an entrepreneurship center perspective. The first round table was hosted by RWTH Aachen University with only seven participating university network partners. Since then, Stage Two had nine round tables hosted by different universities.
