UNWE and EO Southeastern Europe Will Organize a Competition for Entrepreneurs - Global Student Entrepreneur Awards /GSEA/

The Global Student Entrepreneur Awards /GSEA/ is the world's leading competition for students who own and manage a business while attending a college or university. Nominees compete against peers from around the world in a series of local and/or national competitions aiming to rank for the GSEA finals.

"Organizing a competition of Global Student Entrepreneur Awards series is a natural continuation of our work to prepare our students for the real working environment", outlined the Rector and added: "at the UNWE we maintain long-term partnerships with the business to conduct internship and mentoring programmes. In order to develop the entrepreneurial and innovation skills of our students and to help them start a business, we have opened a University Startup Hub at UNWE. Young people will be able to learn about the opportunities for funding startups, will get training on how to prepare business plans and how to present their ideas to investors, will receive legal information."

At the signing also attended Prof. Dr. Tsvetana Stoyanova, Vice Rector for Institutional and Business Cooperation and Student Policies and members of the Board of EO Southeastern Europe.

According to the terms set in the Memorandum the National Competition for Bulgaria will be held on 17 February 2023 at the UNWE. Students apply for participation on the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards website by 31 January 2023.
