For whom?
Academy of Entrepreneurship of the University of Lodz is a unique initiative created for all those who are interested in this area of activity – they set up a business, already run a business or, having many doubts, are only just starting to plan it. The academy was originally created for the University of Lodz students; however, it is now open to everyone, regardless of age and interests.

The task of the academy is to inspire people to undertake economic activity, we debunk myths and stereotypes on the subject and provide reliable knowledge. Looking critically at the developing start-up culture, we try to capture those elements of entrepreneurship that are conducive to building social value and meet the requirements of business ethics. We are committed to promoting innovative and sustainable business models. We promote productive and quality entrepreneurship.
The academy will let you learn, among other things, that entrepreneurship is everywhere and helps to put ideas into practice. You will get to know the way of thinking and making decisions typical of entrepreneurs. You will learn how to evaluate your ideas using business tools. We will also talk about technology development, globalisation and their potential consequences for sustainable and ethical entrepreneurship.
