The Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana (International Ibero-American University, UNIB) will host the Spanish-language online multiplier event “Educating for Sustainable, Digital, and Profitable Entrepreneurship: The Tools of the European Start-DSP Project” on September 17 at 5:00 p.m. (CET).
The project, led by the Accreditation Council for Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities (ACEEU) in Germany, includes the following European institutions: the European University of the Atlantic (UNEATLANTICO) in Spain, Momentum Services in Ireland, the European E-Learning Institute (EUEI) in Denmark, Metropolitan College in Greece, and the German consulting firm The Vision Works.
The event is aimed specifically at students, faculty in business and entrepreneurship-related fields, and entrepreneurs interested in learning about new tools and methodologies to promote a more innovative, digital, sustainable, and ethical entrepreneurial education.
During the event, Drs. Thomas Prola and Emmanuel Soriano, researchers at Start-DSP, will explain the various products developed during the project, which aim to improve the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education in higher education institutions.
Emmanuel Soriano holds a Ph.D. in Higher Education Sciences and a Master’s degree in International Business Administration. He has experience as a professor and researcher at various universities in Mexico and Spain. Thomas Prola holds a Ph.D. in Educational Sciences from the University of Barcelona (UB). He also holds a Master’s degree in Education and Teaching in Virtual Environments.
The program will combine the presentation of various findings with the participation of invited experts and opportunities for dialogue with the audience. Topics to be covered will include, among others, the competency framework and curriculum guide, the course, and the case studies, as well as the business plan evaluator.
The event will also feature researchers from the European RISE UP project—in which UNEATLANTICO also participates—which aims to help higher education professionals address both the scientific and emotional dimensions of the climate crisis, particularly its impact on students.
Aline Noyola de la Llave, who holds a Ph.D. in Economics and Government, is an academic and the founder of Komuni—a rural and community-based tourism platform in Mexico created a decade ago to promote sustainable tourism with a different approach to international business—and will also speak at the event.
The conference is free and open to anyone interested in the topic, and will be streamed live via the FUNIBER YouTube channel.
