Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship

Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship is the leading centre for entrepreneurship in Europe. Fueled by our belief that entrepreneurship is the primary driver for innovation, we strive to embed entrepreneurship in the DNA of people by applying the knowledge and network of Erasmus University Rotterdam, a university founded by entrepreneurs more than 100 years ago. With our four full professors and 35+ academic trainers on entrepreneurship, we offer actionable executive entrepreneurship training and innovation programmes to corporates, and well as to starting entrepreneurs. Every year we teach 3.000 students the foundation of entrepreneurship. We do this at our own entrepreneurial learning environment of 10,000 m2 in the Rotterdam Science Tower, also the home base for our community consisting of 100+ innovative companies. We have a good understanding of the successful start and growth factors of companies; we monitor and study fast growing companies and present the results in the ScaleUp Dashboard.
