ESPM launches Entrepreneurship Hub and seeks to broaden discussions on ecosystems and entrepreneurial culture

ESPM, a leading authority in marketing and innovation for businesses, has just launched the Entrepreneurship Hub. ESPM's hubs are living laboratories created to enhance ideas, careers, and businesses from Brazilian sectorial ecosystems.

The group aimed at discussing entrepreneurship emerges as a community dedicated to the exchange of experiences, innovation, and new businesses, connecting students, alumni, professors, researchers, and entrepreneurs. With a contemporary approach, the Hub seeks to encourage innovation with responsibility and relevance through three pillars: Strength of Creativity, Global Ecosystems, and Digitally Native Vertical Brands (DNVBs).

“The creation of the hub is yet another step in the maturation and structuring of the entrepreneurship discussion at ESPM. With it, we have achieved a unanimous positioning for the market. The goal is to connect all the initiatives that were already underway at ESPM from a unique vision for the market,” comments Caio Bianchi, Director of Extension, Ecosystems, and Continuing Education at ESPM. 

With a vibrant portfolio of courses and agendas, it is a catalyst for ESPM initiatives that work on entrepreneurship at all levels: undergraduate, graduate, extension, and master's and doctorate degrees. Through the group, ESPM accompanies the entrepreneur in all phases of their journey, facilitating the transformation of ideas into businesses and driving the growth of new ventures by connecting entrepreneurs with opportunities, markets, and investors. In addition to valuing the longevity of family businesses by promoting sustainable continuity, governance, and innovation in family businesses that span generations.

The Hub relies on strategic partners such as ADE Sampa, ABStartups, Founder Institute, Cristal IA, and Innovati, as well as inspiring professors who are directly involved in the initiatives and courses.

Fernanda Cahen, a professor of graduate studies in Administration (PPGA) at ESPM, will also be responsible as curator of the Entrepreneurship Hub, which also has a community Active on WhatsApp with industry professionals sharing the latest news and job opportunities, as well as networking. 

With this launch, ESPM now has seven Hubs for the market: Fashion and Beauty, Luxury, ESG, Digital Channels, Trade Marketing, Employer Branding, and Entrepreneurship. All of them feature events for the market and current discussions on each sector.
