Global Entrepreneurship Week
Välkommen att delta på årets aktiviteter under Global Entrepreneurship Week vid Linnéuniversitetet! GEW är ett återkommande och världsomspännande evenemang inom vilket i år fler än 170 länder deltar. GEW är ett medel för att manifestera värdet av entreprenörskap och att ge studenter, forskare och näringsliv en chans att bli inspirerade, ta del av forskning och att kunna få möta förebilder från näringsliv och samhälle.
Veckan inleds måndagen den 14 november och aktiviteterna är öppna för såväl studenter, forskare och anställda vid universitetet som den intresserade allmänheten.
Aktiviteterna kommer att hållas på engelska, med några få undantag (vilka kan du läsa om i programmet, se nedan).
Global Entrepreneurship Week 2022 är ett samarbete mellan Linnéuniversitetet och Drivhuset. Drivhuset arbetar för att stärka studenters entreprenörskap och finns både i Kalmar och Växjö.

Zenit i hus Culmen
Social Innovation Camp is about finding innovative solutions to societal challenges. This concept combines entrepreneurship and creation of societal benefits.
All participants are gathered in a common workshop. The workshop is based on the Design Thinking method, stemming from the client and user as co-creators of the solution. A dynamic is formed as participants are activated in a common entrepreneurial process. When points of contact are created between actors, the conditions to develop workable ideas get generated.

08:30 - 10:00 Coompanion om sociala företag, på svenska
Online Zoom-länk
Vad är egentligen ett socialt företag och vad skiljer det från ett traditionellt företag? Entreprenörskap kommer i många olika former och sociala företag baserar sin affärsverksamhet på en eller flera samhällsutmaningar för att skapa samhällsnyttiga affärer. Hur det går till och vilka olika slags sociala företag som finns berättar vi mer om under Global Entrepreneurship Week.
16:00 - 18:00 Workshop “Creating cross-sectoral dialogue for a sustainable society”
Cyan (Cu4023) i hus Culmen
As societal challenges are brought to light in a more and more urgent fashion, many of us citizens want to get involved and act towards a more sustainable society, somehow. Dialogue and cooperations between all forms of actors in society (individuals, civil society organisations, academics, companies and more) appear necessary to create an effective lasting impact. But how can we actually contribute to this cross-sectoral dialogue?
This is the theme tackled in this workshop, supported by an inspiring method and fueled by participants’ own questions and creativity.
Workshop led by Akatingo International and Drivhuset.
