From the 14th to the 17th of June the XXVI ISPIM Innovation Conference will take place in Budapest, Hungary.

Borderstep Institute representatives Klaus Fichter and Linda Bergset will present fresh empirical results from the EU research project SHIFT on the topic of sustainable entrepreneurship.

The title of the Special Session, which is dedicated to the project, is “Support systems for sustainable entrepreneurship and eco-innovation”. Here, empirical evidence on “green” incubators and “green” entrepreneurial finance will be presented and discussed.

In another format (the so-called “hot topic discussion circle”) the topic of „green“ entrepreneurial support at universities will be discussed.
