Abstract

Strategic entrepreneurship is a polysemic concept that serves multiple purposes. This text approaches an entrepreneurship training programme in Portugal that was developed as a strategy to combat unemployment. It reports the experience of Provi@, a winning project in the Portuguese European Enterprise Promotion Awards—EEPA [2nd national prize in the category of “Investment in Entrepreneurial Skills” of the “European Enterprise Promotion Awards”, promoted by the European Commission—DG GROW (General Directorate for the Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs)] as an innovative and differentiating programme promoted by a public employment service that has implemented a successful regional response to deal with unemployment and to promote the local economy through capacity building for impact entrepreneurship. The differentiation of the programme is highlighted in terms of design and development (social and economic framework, human resources and curriculum development), implementation and evaluation (operational management, training modes, outputs and Outcomes), identifying the main conclusions and proposals resulting from learning and some important guidelines for the development of future intervention programmes.
