MOOC

OPEN ONLINE COURSES

SLIOB is both a hub and a repository for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC)—high-quality online programs focused on entrepreneurship, innovation, finance, risk management, and big data.
These courses combine strong theoretical foundations with practical, hands-on skills in DISAQ’s disciplines, supported by a large database for applied exercises.

BUSINESS GAME

In line with the MIT REAP model, DISAQ has developed TEEG – The Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Game, a virtual simulation where players act as policymakers within an entrepreneurial ecosystem.
The game strengthens entrepreneurial culture by allowing participants to directly experience ecosystem dynamics. It highlights the conditions for the creation and long-term survival of start-ups using three types of tools: Analytical tools, Meta-organizational tools, Policy interventions

Research Reports

DISAQ publishes digital research reports that provide in-depth analysis of Local Innovation Systems (SLI). These combine theoretical insights with field studies, using interdisciplinary expertise in management, finance, applied mathematics, and economic statistics. Reports are produced by dedicated working groups of faculty, researchers, and fellows, who collaborate on specific projects to understand and improve innovation systems at both national and international levels.
