The EntreAction project is a multinational project with a consortium of seven project partners, led by the St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo, with Leipzig University (SEPT Competence Center, Germany), Maritime University of Szczecin (Poland), Science4People (Poland), Tampere University of Applied Sciences (Finland), University of Aveiro (Portugal), and Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University (Turkey) as project implementing partners.

Funded under the European Commission Erasmus+ Cooperation partnerships in higher education initiative, the project focuses on developing digital tools for modern educational processes, combining participatory learning and creative learning/teaching. Furthermore, it seeks to synergize knowledge, skills, and competencies adequate to the realities of Industry 4.0 and 5.0 and prepare more digitally literate teachers at HEIs.

The kick-off meeting in Veliko Tarnovo was held from October 11th to 13th, 2022, at St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria. The meeting was an opportunity for the project partners to discuss key issues related to the project implementation and presented the right atmosphere for the formal integration of the project stakeholders. All partners participated in person with two representatives except for the University of Aveiro, whose representatives joined online.

The key content of the meeting was the working packages and responsibilities, especially on Storytelling for Business (Working package 2). This initial phase of the project will involve collecting stories and challenging situations from entrepreneurs operating in the territories of partner countries. Further project implementation modalities have been agreed upon.

The project runs from September 2022 till the end of June 2025.
