Poliempreende

Poliempreende stands out as the main network for promoting entrepreneurship in the context of Portuguese polytechnic higher education, with the seal of approval of the Coordinating Council of Polytechnic Higher Education Institutes. The network’s objectives include promoting an entrepreneurial culture, stimulating creativity, innovation, initiative and teamwork. In addition, the network seeks to educate and train for entrepreneurship, promote the transfer of technology and knowledge between academia and the business community, and foster the creation of new innovative, creative and technology-based companies. The Poliempreende competition rewards the best ideas and business plans, first in a regional phase and then at national level. In this second phase, the winning team from each polytechnic institute faces the winners from the other partner institutions in the network. The constant evolution of Poliempreende recently included opening up the competition to international partner institutions, further expanding its reach.
