Entrepreneurship Week

For one week, millions of young people around the world join a growing movement of entrepreneurial thinkers, to generate new ideas and to seek better ways of doing things. Countries across six continents come together to celebrate Global Entrepreneurship Week, an initiative to inspire young people to embrace innovation, imagination and creativity. To think big— and to turn their ideas into reality.

Each November, Global Entrepreneurship Week at Marquette University offers activities across campus designed to help the Marquette community explore their potential as self-starters and innovators. Students, educators, entrepreneurs, business leaders, employees, non-profit leaders, government officials and many others participate in a range of activities, from online to face-to-face, and from large-scale events and competitions to intimate networking gatherings.

Over 1,300 students, alums, and members of the community participated in Marquette’s 2010 Entrepreneurship Week celebration of innovation campus-wide, which featured an outstanding caliber of panelists and keynote speakers including some of the most innovative entrepreneurs of our time such as Apple Computer co-founder Steve Wozniak, and the founder of Priceline.com, Jeff Hoffman.
