The EMPRÈN Project

Thanks to the support of the Generalitat de Catalunya, through its INICIA project, the 2010-2011 academic course will see the creation of a new IDEC service. The aim of the Emprèn project is to promote entrepreneurship throughout the IDEC community.

This service will apply a new system for promoting, detecting and supporting entrepreneurial initiatives among IDEC participants and former students which will allow:

• the promotion of an entrepreneurial spirit among teaching staff, students and alumni, through the spreading of entrepreneurial culture,
• the identification of entrepreneurial initiatives from within the university community itself,
• counselling entrepreneurial individuals.

The offer of support services to those individuals interested in giving shape to a business initiative is based on activities as outlining a project, producing a business plan and analysing economic viability among others.
