EntreUnity is a network of aspiring entrepreneurial universities that share a passion and a responsibility to tackle global food security, ageing populations and climate change by educating and training the next generation of agri-food, health and green-tech students in entrepreneurship and leadership. The network also contributes to the transfer of knowledge, know-how and innovation processes to companies and public actors.

During the last five years, all of EntreUnity’s higher education institutions (HEIs) extended their initial education and teaching missions towards the triple helix and knowledge triangle paradigms, substantially increasing knowledge, technology transfer and innovation. In line with this transition, the term ‘entrepreneurial university’ became increasingly popular. However, there is a lack of understanding of the term, its mission and how the role is reflected in regional innovation ecosystems.
