Customise your future
Our entrepreneurship objectives and initiatives focus on supporting students, researchers, and early stage entrepreneurs. The aim is to develop opportunities for industrial exploitation of research and innovation outputs, connect with entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds, and provide assistance in turning ideas into functioning businesses.
For that:
- We established workspaces for mentorship, educational programming, and access to investors, both virtually and physically within the EUNICE partnership.
- We host events to support entrepreneurship, ranging from innovation contests to business idea competitions within our ten partner universities.
For any question, please contact your local EUNICE office.
