Abstract

Cross Border Virtual Entrepreneurship (CBVE) refers to a Multilateral European project, which has been co-funded by the Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Commission. The objective of CBVE has been to improve the entrepreneurship competence of students through open and flexible, didactically-innovative and pedagogically-rich learning approaches. The project has aimed to strengthen structured entrepreneurial training opportunities and external network liaisons, in particular there where flexible learning approaches could be utilised to reach out to more diverse target groups. The CBVE project has resulted in an incubating (virtual) business-planning environment, as well as an off-campus Masterclass entrepreneurship in English, Hungarian, Estonian, Italian and Spanish. Apart from the Internet, the multilingual Masterclass has also been broadcasted through the (free-on-air) satellite infra-structure RAI NETTUNNO SAT1, across Western, Central and Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean and across North America.
