European Startup Week is an initiative launched by the European Commission to include all regions in a collaborative programme focused on supporting start-ups.
There are many global initiatives created to celebrate entrepreneurship. For the third consecutive year, Syracuse was one of the accredited venues to host Startup Europe Week and Impact Hub Syracuse, the co-working for social innovators, was the location selected by the Commission. During the first part of the day, one-to-one meetings with companies for access to micro-credit were held. In the afternoon, after the presentation of Startup Europe Week and European initiatives in support of start-ups, the actors of the local ecosystem in support of start-ups were presented.
