Transnational Entrepreneurship

Transnational Entrepreneurship – Including and maintaining entrepreneurial talents in the Øresund Region

…is the titel of a new project Øresund Entrepreneurship has initiated with the guiding research question;

Which areas within policy and university initiatives can the Øresund Region (further) develop and coordinate with the goal of making it more attractive for international students and researchers to start a business here, so more transnational entrepreneurs are included and maintained? And which partners can help solve the task?

What we do…

We are researching the status in Sweden & Denmark – What is being done to make it attractive, easy, and a matter of course for the international talents to stay and start their own business? We strive to detect the gaps and identify what the needs are with cross-border added value in mente. We look at both the formal side of e.g. policy and the more informal initiatives and are currently forming hypothesis. The goal is to decide upon a couple of focus areas with corresponding activities to be implemented with partners involved.

What we know…

We know the structural frames need to be in place, but we also know that that is not enough. The information availability and social side also need to be in place. That is where we would like your input. 

How can we make the international talents feel welcome, included, secure and well-informed in and about the context of Øresund so starting a business here becomes an attractive possibility? Join the debate! Ideas? Experiences?

Best,

Lisa
