ENTREPRENEURSHIP SPIRIT
An entrepreneurial spirit is at the heart of our institution.
We champion new ways of thinking and create an environment where students can unleash their creativity, push boundaries, and venture into the unexplored. Students are not only encouraged to start new initiatives, they are provided with the resources and training they need to be successful. We continually strive to foster this entrepreneurial mindset and develop the capacities which enable our students to create value and make a difference in society.
Many of our students express the desire to learn how to launch their own business or projects and during their time at IE University many begin. Each of the degree programs at IE University has a strong focus on cultivating students’ entrepreneurial skills, which includes the basic know-how from business and management classes and seminars, an education with a high focus on humanities that allow students to view the world from new perspectives, and the resources through the Start-Up Lab and the IE Venture Lab.
