Entrepreneurship Education Summit (Ecosystem Fund)

Entrepreneurship Education Summit (Ecosystem Fund)

Funded by a grant through the Scottish Ecosystem Fund 2023-24, this project will see Entrepreneurship trainers from across the EU come to Glasgow to share best practice, and explore new approaches to delivering Entrepreneurship Education.

Supporting the recommendations of the Entrepreneurial Campus Report, the Summit provided participants with an opportunity to review existing Entrepreneurship training provisions and identify any gaps in the curriculum.

The event also provided a platform to showcase best practices from across the Basque Country, Finland, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland and Scotland, pursuing new pedagogical approaches on how to train educators to deliver effective Entrepreneurship training and discuss strategies around employer engagement.

  • Value creation as the core of entrepreneurial activity.
  • Developing an entrepreneurial mindset amongst students.
  • Developing core entrepreneurial competencies amongst students.
  • Developing pedagogical approaches for entrepreneurial education.
  • Preparing educators to deliver effective entrepreneurial education.
