THRIVING THROUGH CHALLENGING TIMES When we kicked off EntreComp Europe in February, we had no idea what the coming months would look like and how it would affect our plans to build collaborative communities of engaged entrepreneurial citizens and organisations across Europe – and beyond. But of course, like so many other projects around us, the Covid-19 pandemic derailed some of our plans.

So follow us on Twitter, Facebook Community groups (linked above) and our website to stay up to date and take a look at all the educational resources, training and events EntreComp
