The workshop aims to analyse and discuss positive/negative aspects of current approaches to innovation and entrepreneurship. The goal is to provide the attendants with a deeper understanding of how innovation and entrepreneurship work at present, highlighting positive aspects but also adding a critical perspective in their relationships to sustainability.

The workshop will also attempt to integrate different frameworks that may provide more comprehensive solutions when innovating toward sustainability.

Who is it good for? The workshop is good for anyone interested in innovation, entrepreneurship, and its relationship to sustainability. Whether you are only starting to get interested in these topics, or if you are a more experienced professional; the workshop will have space to listen, learn, and build on the experience of the attendants that wish to share their knowledge.
