LEINN VALENCIA

What LEINN VALENCIA does

LEINN Valencia is the Grado en Liderazgo Emprendedor e Innovaci\u00f3n (LEINN), a four-year, 240 ECTS undergraduate degree program in Entrepreneurial Leadership and Innovation offered at Florida Universit\u00e0ria's Campus Valencia in Catarroja, Spain, with the official degree awarded by Universidad de Mondrag\u00f3n. It is not a standalone company but an academic program operated by Florida Centre de Formaci\u00f3, Sociedad Cooperativa Valenciana (part of Florida Grup Educatiu cooperative educational group). The program follows the proprietary Team Academy / Tiimiakatemia methodology developed by Johannes Partanen at Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4 University of Applied Sciences in Finland in 1993, which has been transferred to roughly 20 university centers worldwide. Students learn in entrepreneurial teams coached by trained Team Coaches rather than via traditional lectures, creating real companies with real clients during the degree.

Core architecture rests on three pillars: (1) the Team Academy methodology, in which a sports-style coaching model replaces conventional lecturing; (2) the Entrepreneurship Laboratory (Laboratorio de Emprendimiento), a physical co-working space on Campus Valencia supported by team coaches, digital/tech advisors (Carlos Domingo), fiscal/financial advisors (Pablo Garc\u00eda Estela), legal advisors (Silvia Beltr\u00e1n), and business mentors (Joan Dami\u00e0 Climent), with incubation managed by Sonia Rodr\u00edguez Mart\u00ednez; and (3) three international Learning Journeys across three continents \u2014 Year 1 at MTALab Berlin (Atelier Gardens), Year 2 at Dock72 (Brooklyn Navy Yard, New York), and Year 3 at Konkuk University (Seoul) and with WA Foundation in India. The CoopLearning model layers cooperative values onto the Finnish framework with five pillars: Finnish model, international experience, learning by doing, real companies, and student-as-protagonist.

Business model is a subscription-style annual tuition of 10,290 euros for the 2026-2027 academic year (900 euros reservation + 1,500 euros matriculation + 9 monthly installments of 876.70 euros), inclusive of Year 1 Learning Journey accommodation and transport and Years 2-3 transport. Annual intake is capped at 60 students. GTM is community-led: prospective students attend open days, submit a Learning Contract, complete a team-based exercise, undergo a personal interview, and then formally matriculate at Universidad de Mondrag\u00f3n. Marketing is concentrated on Florida Universit\u00e0ria's institutional channels (website, open days, YouTube documentary content, WhatsApp Business contact), with a 5% tuition discount available to Florida alumni and members of partner cooperatives, and payment-plan arrangements with CaixaBank and Caixa Popular.

Broad incumbents

• ESIC Business & Marketing School: Spanish private business school with a wide portfolio of undergraduate, postgraduate and executive programs including marketing and entrepreneurship. Comparable target audience and Spanish footprint.
• Babson College: US college widely recognized as the global leader in entrepreneurship education. Comparable on focus (entrepreneurship-centered degree) and outcomes (graduates founding companies), though at much larger scale and in English.
• IE University / IE Business School: Leading Spanish business school offering undergraduate and MBA programs with strong entrepreneurship focus. Competes for the same ambitious Spanish and international students at a much larger scale.
• ESADE: Top-tier Spanish business school with undergraduate, MBA, and executive programs including entrepreneurship tracks. Overlaps with LEINN on target market (ambitious Spanish undergraduates interested in business) but operates at much larger scale.

Regional players

• OBS Business School: Spanish online/distance business school offering MBAs and masters with strong digital delivery. Comparable on Spanish-market entrepreneurship education but with a fully online, scalable model that contrasts with LEINN's on-campus approach.

Direct peers

• Mondragón Unibertsitatea (LEINN/MU): Degree-awarding partner and original licensor of the LEINN program; operates the LEINN degree at its own Basque campuses using the identical Team Academy methodology. Most directly comparable on pedagogy, content, and target student.

• JAMK University of Applied Sciences (Team Academy): Finnish origin of the Team Academy / Tiimiakatemia methodology. Operates its own Team Academy entrepreneurship degree, making it the originating peer and methodology licensor for LEINN Valencia.

Emerging players

• ENEB (European Business School Barcelona): Online-focused Spanish business school offering undergraduate, masters and MBAs including entrepreneurship. Comparable on Spanish private business education but competes primarily on price and remote flexibility rather than experiential learning.
