INCLUSIVE ENTREPRENEURSHIP ALLIANCE CAMPAIGN

We’re gathering support to form a alliance for inclusive entrepreneurship. Our mission: to ensure that entrepreneurship is a path open to all, regardless of gender, age, cultural background, or life experience.

The new political term of the European Union creates a chance for allies across Europe to come together and advocate for the prioritisation of inclusive entrepreneurship on the EU’s agenda. Whether you are a researcher, entrepreneur, NGO, business organisation or concerned citizen, everyone is invited to join our alliance for inclusive entrepreneurship.

SUPPORT

According to the OECD, over 7.5 million entrepreneurs are missing from Europe.

We need to make entrepreneurship more inclusive.

It’s time to prioritise inclusive 

entrepreneurship.

This is our opportunity to promote inclusive entrepreneurship and amplify the voices of entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds in EU policy-making. Let’s challenge the status quo and encourage innovative ideas!

Together, we can craft inclusive entrepreneurship policies that pave the way for equal opportunities and collaboration across party lines, sectors, civil society groups, and policy domains.

With the support of policymakers from different pro-European, we can establish an impactful platform involving civil society,

researchers, entrepreneurial networks, decision-makers and policy experts dedicated to advancing inclusive entrepreneurship policies and fostering connections between different groups. Join the movement dedicated to building a more inclusive and equitable entrepreneurial landscape in Europe.
