THE ROAD TO ENTREPRENEURSHIP AMONG HUNGARIAN UNIVERSITY CITIZENS

Abstract

With our incubation program, which we launched about 3 years ago, we provide a unique service for our students and our colleagues at the University of Pécs. Anybody, who has a viable business idea, can apply for our program. We give the applicants a mentor, access to our networks and community, and an opportunity to pitch their idea before investors and venture capitalists. In this paper we tried to proof that our initiative is for the personal development and carrier opportunities of our students, for the development and wider national and international recognition of our university and for the greater good of our region.
