The EUNICE Entrepreneurship Lab (E-Elab) is a core initiative of the EUNICE regional engagement activity, designed to nurture entrepreneurial thinking and transform innovative ideas into viable ventures. It brings together students, researchers, and early-stage entrepreneurs from across the EUNICE network, fostering a culture of cross-border collaboration and innovation. E-Elab serves as an entry point into the broader EUNICE Incubator, providing early-stage entrepreneurs with the foundational skills, networks, and support needed to move from concept to company. Promising projects developed during E-Elab can seamlessly transition into the EUNICE Incubator, where they receive continued support, including:
Advanced business development services
Access to startup funding and investor networks
Incubation space and technical infrastructure
Ongoing mentoring and growth support
Together, E-Elab and the EUNICE Incubator create a full pipeline for entrepreneurial success—from ideation to market launch—strengthening regional innovation and building sustainable startups across EUNICE Eupean Alliance.
The first edition of E-Lab is in hybrid mode, with 13 online workshops ( March 13-June 24, 2025) to and a Summer School in Catania (30 June-4 July, 2025, see program).
