determined to make the world a better place

In the run up to the forthcoming European Parliament elections, more than 150 entrepreneurs attended the The European Commission and Junior Achievement Young Enterprise Europe May launch of YOUR WORLD, YOUR BUSINESS in Brussels with the aim of changing the world for the better.

 

A series of speakers including Nick Jankel, innovator in mental capital, Oscar Lundin, Ung Omsong Sverige, Deb Leary, Forensic Pathways, i-genius' Tommy Hutchinson and Lettemieke Mulder, Unilever's Director of External Affairs and Corporate Responsibility gave a first hand impression on how responsible entrepreneurship education can inspire their country’s future generations.

 

YOUR WORLD, YOUR BUSINESS aims to inspire young people to become the kind of entrepreneurs society increasingly needs: Creative, dynamic and determined to make the world a better place. It corresponds with a new focus in Europe to promote corporate social responsibility and entrepreneurship education.

 

A film profiling four young European entrepreneurs whose business models are commercially successful and based around social and environmental issues. Photographs of the launch event of YOUR WORLD, YOUR BUSINESS can be downloaded via the following link: http://www.myblueclic.com/yourworld and the European Commission site (http://ec.europa.eu/your-world-your-business) which comprises videos and a guide for teachers. All the materials are available in all official European languages. Furthermore, it is possible to order hard copies of the materials on this web site.
