expanding your
entrepreneurial
ecosystem
Coneeect IN is a network of
international university linked
entrepreneurship incubators who
share their start-ups, partners,
resources, and human capital in
the pursuit of expanding their
entrepreneurial ecosystem to an
international scale.
WE ARE A NETWORK OF …
Start-ups
Experts
Incubators
Students
Universities
Companies
Coaches
Educators
Who believe that by connecting and co-creating,
we can create a more hollistic, accessible,
and sustainable entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Ideal Ecosystem
The ideal ecosystem contains multiple
interconnected networks.
The Network
The Coneeect network is an entrepreneurship
network that supports both
entrepreneurship education and start-up
incubation. We do this through our two
initiatives Coneeect U and Coneeect IN.
Our philosophy behind Coneeect U is that
we believe that most current approaches
to entrepreneurship and thus entrepreneurship
education are limited. Most university
entrepreneurship courses focus on the
creation of new ventures. We believe that
students and professors can benefit from
a more holistic and personal developmentoriented
approach that applies not only
to starting a new company, but also applies
more broadly to the students who do not
plan to start a company.
Coneeect also aims to support the
international incubation of start-ups
through Coneeect IN because we believe
that international perspectives can be
incredibly formative to a start-up as they
shape the future of their company. By
building a network of international
incubators that share their expertise,
coaches, and space we support the
internationalization of start-ups and thus,
their international potential.
When you join Coneeect U, you gain
access to educators, universities and
students not only in your country, but
internationally. Use this network to
co-create the entrepreneurship courses
that will shape future entrepreneurs.
The Coneeect IN network provides
incubators with a connection to partners
on an international scale. By allowing
start-ups to broaden their horizons beyond
their local partners, it opens up endless
opportunities for collaboration, networking
and funding.
By sharing resources, information, and best
practices, the members of the Coneeect
network avoid the risk of working to create
programs that already exist, which allows
them to focus on their time on creating the
future of entrepreneurship.
— Several networks
overlap to create one
large ecosystem
— No information is
reproduced because
all information within
the group is shared
IDEAL ECOSYSTEM
— Academic networks blend
with corporate networks to
create synergies
GOALS
Most incubators and universities
do not learn or collaborate with
external parties because they are
focused on their own activities.
There is not enough co-creation
between educators, coaches,
incubators, start-ups, universities,
and companies
more
co-creation
open
innovation
Goals
course
specialization
Most of the innovation that is
created is kept within the institution
or even within a smaller department
or team, it is seldom shared.
Many resources are used to
create introductory level
entrepreneurship programs that
are readily available elsewhere
– there is little specialization.
