            Useful digital tools for entrepreneurship and innovation


            In addition to the fundamental principles and skills offered by the Innovation and Entrepreneurship

            Core, there are different tools and resources available to empower young individuals in their journey
            towards digital entrepreneurship.


            Let's explore some of these key elements that can enhance your entrepreneurial capabilities and

            foster success in the digital sector.


            Market Research and Analysis

            Understanding the target market is vital for any entrepreneur. Utilising market research tools and

            techniques  enables  you  to  identify  trends,  consumer  needs,  and  competitive  landscapes.  This

            information  aids  in  developing  innovative  products  or  services  that  cater  to  specific  market

            demands. Tools like Google Trends, Statista, and social media analytics platforms provide valuable

            insights into consumer preferences and market dynamics.

            Design thinking tools


            Digital Design Thinking tools are software applications that facilitate the ideation, prototyping, and

            testing phases of the design thinking process. You can use them to brainstorm with a team, thus
            encouraging collaboration, even in a distance. It will help you solve problems, design new products,

            while  being  creative  and  innovative.  Tools  like  Miro  (whiteboarding),  Figma  (real-time

            collaboration), or InVision (prototyping) ease the workflow and collaborative work.
