EPIC aims to build on previous E4IC initiatives by strengthening the Erasmus Network for Young Entrepreneurs, with a special focus on sustainable, digital, and female entrepreneurship. The project brings together partners whose core activities revolve around entrepreneurship and who, with their experience in sustainable and community entrepreneurship, female self-employment, and circular economy start-ups, contribute to developing new initiatives that attract and support sustainable and digital entrepreneurs.
EPIC fosters networking and knowledge exchange among entrepreneurs from different COSME countries, addressing challenges related to business creation, growth, market access, and internationalization. Its main objectives include promoting environmentally friendly technologies and business practices, raising awareness of the circular economy, and attracting digital and technology entrepreneurs. Additionally, EPIC supports female entrepreneurship, facilitates knowledge exchange, and strengthens entrepreneurial networks in underrepresented countries and emerging economies.
