Transforming Universities into Hubs of Innovation and Entrepreneurship

At Preneurz, we believe that universities have the power to shape the future by fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. Our programs empower universities to become dynamic ecosystems where students, researchers, and educators thrive.

We offer tailored support to help universities embrace this transformation:

Empowering Educators
We deliver masterclasses like “How to Teach Entrepreneurship” and “How to Build Entrepreneurship Ecosystems” to equip educators and leaders with the tools to foster entrepreneurial mindsets. Initiatives like the Entrepreneurial University program in Greece are great examples of this.

From programs like the Academic Startup Competition with Techleap to collaborations with incubators such as Tirana, Inc. and Orange Grove, we guide aspiring entrepreneurs in turning ideas into impactful businesses.

Data-Driven Ecosystem Insights
Through projects like the Academic Venture Monitor, developed with Techleap, we provide data and analysis to map academic startup ecosystems, offering actionable insights for universities and policymakers.

Real-World Innovation Spaces
