The Eighth European Conference on Innovation and Entrepreneurship (ECIE2013) will take place from 19 to 20 September 2013 in Brussels, Belgium.
Small firms depend on entrepreneurs - individuals who have the ideas and are willing to take the risks necessary to get a firm off the ground. Europe needs more entrepreneurs in this economic context. The lack of entrepreneurial gumption is widely seen as a chief barrier to growth, especially at a time when many big companies are shedding jobs.
Over the last years, there is a growing recognition in business environments of the key role played by innovation in the creation and success of businesses. Additionally to this, there is a growing recognition of the need of more sustainable innovation, combining economic, ecologic and social aspects. These challenges combined with limited internal resources and high risk and complexity enhance (social) networking in innovation and entrepreneurship should entice European policy makers and other stakeholder to stimulate and provide the necessary means for innovation and entrepreneurship.
The conference will be an opportunity for scientific discussion and collaboration on a broad range of relevant fertile areas associated to recent trends in innovation.For further information, please visit:
