South-East European Research Centre (SEERC)

The event is part of the ELIE project. ELIE - Employability: Learning through International Entrepreneurship -aims to develop new methods of giving people the capabilities and skills to start up their own business if they emigrate from their country of birth. It is well known that immigrants are often successful entrepreneurs but we don’t know what helps and encourages people to start their own businesses on moving to a new country. ELIE will work with immigrant entrepreneurs across Europe to discover their experiences of starting up and maintaining a business in a new country.
