Coach for Entrepreneurial Opportunies (C-EO)

Entrepreneurship is an important way to create economic growth and strengthens a society. Recently the European Commission published the ‘Entrepreneurship 2020 Action Plan; reigniting the entrepreneurial spirit in Europe’ (January 2013). This blueprint includes the support of groups that are underrepresented among the entrepreneurial population. The demographic groups who are underrepresented within the entrepreneurial population are young people, women, disabled and/or migrants. In order to create jobs for them and empower them economically and socially and leverage their creative and innovative capacities, Europe needs to open up for them and must pave pathways that should be sensitive to the needs of different groups, their expectations and their norms with regards to how advice and information is delivered and received. The project Coach for Entrepreneurial opportunities (C-EO) responds to above mentioned developments and its resulting need. Based on an extended inventory we will analyze the national legislation, training and educational programs and facilities for upcoming entrepreneurs. Apart from constructing a profile of the 'Entrepreneurial Coach' and developing a training for Entrepreneurial Coaches, the partnership of C-EO will develop an Entrepreneurial Passport and a web tool for the target group of unemployed, senior workers and youngsters.
