The Punks of Economic Life in Hungary by Andrej Petri.

There are two types of Hungarian entrepreneurs: the diligent innovators and the tricksters. What comes to your mind if you think about entrepreneurs? Are they constantly looking for loopholes in the system? Are they running their business just because they need money? Or can an entrepreneur be innovative, creative and brave, as well?

The founders of Bridge Budapest, a cooperation of quickly developing and internationally successful companies that started out from Hungary (including Prezi, Ustream, LogMeIn, NNG, etc.), are interested in these questions along with Transparency International and CEU Business School. Because they believe that, a country's competitiveness depends on the existence of smart enterprises.

After the meeting in Poland..

On 11/12, Portuguese students, who took part in the first Erasmus+ mobility to Poland, were encouraged to disseminate the project “On the Road to Entrepreneurship” to different members of our school community. The main aims of the session were: to share students’ experience with their peers; to present the project activities and products developed so far and spread the word about Erasmus+. At the end of the session, many students found inspiration to embrace new Erasmus+ opportunities in the future.

Some News from Portugal!

On December 3rd, Portuguese Erasmus+ students attended a session where they had the chance to learn more about entrepreneurship. Two guests speakers were invited to share their experience and to take them through the main steps to set up and run a company. Bearing in mind that starting a business is hard work, students were all thrilled about the idea of running their own company at the end of this session.

Marry Christmas from Italy!

Last Saturday we took part on the final event of the project "Mettici il cuore" of a Sicilian primary school, "Direzione Didattica De Amicis" in Comiso, a village near Ragusa. Our school prepared the gadgets for this final event, 750 big red hearts, made by our new school company, inside the Erasmus project "On the road to entrepreneurship". A big emotion to see all those people around Comiso with our hearts!!!! That is Erasmus and that is dissemination. Marry Christmas from Italy!!

The cooks from Bruges!

    On the 18th of december our company schEpp.be had its first sell moment. It was on parents evening. As our pupils just got exams we thought we had to choose for a easy product we could sell. We choose for donuts and muffins.
