Explicit focus on innovation and entrepreneurship
Øresund Entrepreneurship was launched in September 2006 (as Øresund Entrepreneurship Academy) in accordance with the idea that the potential for increased economic growth via innovation and entrepreneurship does not occur on its own. A focused effort is necessary, and this is why the Øresund Entrepreneurship Academy was established.
Furthermore, the project was also set in motion in order to satisfy the wishes of politicians, the business community and students, and to make it just as plausible for students to ‘start up their own' as to take a job following graduation and thus secure development within that organization.
The organisation changed its name in March 2010 to the current Øresund Entrepreneurship and at the same time the graphic identity was changed as well. As it is, the organisation will in the future work closely together with the other Øresund Org platforms to create synergy in all fields.
2010-
In the organization’s first four years the focus was a general endeavour towards an enhanced effort at all universities and all kind of studies and students. Now the organization is focused on a more targeted and thematic approach towards entrepreneurship at the universities.
Øresund Entrepreneurship is supporting and developing projects within the business and educational areas where the Øresund Region is particularly strong and focused. Thus we aim to take advantages of strong business clusters, world-leading research areas, and the systematically will to make changes – for better solutions and value for the stakeholders involved.
