Showcasing the successful use of the entrepreneurial mindset by individuals, teams and organisations


We celebrate and showcase individuals, teams and organisations who use the entrepreneurial mindset to make their unique contribution to the world.


One of our major activities is the SHINE Project - Scaling Higher Education Innovation for Europe. SHINE celebrates HE providers who are co-creating solutions to overcome the common barriers to scaling up the innovation capacity of Higher Education Institutions in Europe and around the world.


The Network offers an accreditation which recognises Higher Education providers and supports their ongoing development as entrepreneurial organisations.
