Entrepreneurial Action for Sustainable Impact: JCU Enactus Launch Event October 17

August 27, 2024

John Cabot University is proud to announce a partnership with Enactus, a global organization dedicated to fostering entrepreneurship and sustainable development among university students.

Enactus is an international nonprofit organization, active in 33 countries and dedicated to inspiring students to improve the world through entrepreneurial action. It provides a platform for students to develop innovative solutions to social, environmental, and economic challenges, transforming their ideas into real-world impact, in line with the sustainability objectives laid down in the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

Collaborative Structure
Guided by JCU advisors and supported by business leaders, our self-administered international and multidisciplinary JCU ENACTUS ROME TEAM takes the kind of entrepreneurial approach that empowers people to be a part of their own, real projects and success.

Your work transforms both the lives of people you serve, and in turn, your lives as students as you develop into more effective, values-driven leaders.

Sustainable Competitive Growth
An annual series of regional and national competitions provides a forum for teams to showcase the impact of their outreach efforts and to be evaluated by executives serving as judges. · The national champion team will proceed to the pre-acceleration phase by receiving venture capital funding for the implementation of the entrepreneurial project. · National champion teams advance to the prestigious Enactus World Cup to experience excellence in competition, collaboration, and celebration.
