StartUp_EU - Be a High Tech Entrepreneur
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011,

The StartUp_EU project is designed to motivate secondary school students by replicating the excitement and creative innovation of a new startup company. The project will create an educational game to develop entrepreneurial skills on a Web2.0 technology platform. Secondary school students will learn about entrepreneurship through inspiring and thought-provoking videos, online workbooks covering business and marketing plans, and presentation skills. Students then develop their own business ideas collaboratively and autonomously across Europe. These will be evaluated by a panel of experienced entrepreneurs and winners announced. For students the outcomes will be on multiple levels and include an insight into the world of start-ups and ICT, through replicating the collaborative processes required to develop an idea into a company a real taste of entrepreneurship will be gained. It is critical for Europe to maintain a knowledge-based economy and be at the forefront of technological, innovative entrepreneurship if Europe is to maintain its competiveness. To meet these targets young people should study and seek careers in the scientific and technological fields and understand entrepreneurship.
