Dear ENT colleagues,
Following the various responses I got I wanted to thank everyone and provide
a short wrap-up.
My question was targeting in particular curricula and availability of
material such as slides.
A first approach targets academic course web sites produced by individual
faculty. Those can be found by using the aggregators like the sites at
various entrepreneurship institutions (Kaufman F. and Stanford EdCorner was
mentioned many times) or by making open search in Google by restricting to
.ppt.
A second approach brings course-books produced by publishers, which nowadays
often comes in their multi-centennial form (i.e. paper) as well as with
their attached modern artifacts such as video and ... slides. For instance,
I know at least of two references {Barringer, 2008 #6593; Baron, 2008 #6594}
where full slide packs are available. See the following site for an idea of
can be available:

I already thanked all the responses I received. However, it seems that I did
not receive some responses (for instance Ben Powell below), thanks those in
case some mail problems are currently occurring.
Best regards to all,

Fabrice:
If you contemplate a group project, you might consider having the
students conduct a feasibility assessment of an idea they have for a new
venture. The best tool for doing so is the framework developed in my
book, The New Business Road Test (Prentice-Hall/FT, 2003 and 2006). I'll
attach chapter 1 here. You'll find the book on Amazon.co.uk and I expect
that Filipe Santos has a copy. The book is in use -- either Chapter 1 or
the whole book -- in lots of courses like yours, including one at LBS.
Best,
John Mullins
