Transforming Academic Knowledge to Develop Entrepreneurial Universities in Pakistan/ TAKE-UP

This project is a by-product of an initiative by Higher Education Commission (HEC) to transform academic institutions into entrepreneurial universities. It was based on how the TAKE-UP approach can significantly improve the entrepreneurial cultures of the partner universities in Pakistan and transform them into role models for Pakistani universities. Further, TAKE-UP focused on the capacity building of (associated) staff members of BICs, as these play a crucial role in the motivation, development, and sustainability of business ideas at the HEIs and equip universities with the necessary tools to facilitate the work of these incubation centres. Activities during the project used a holistic approach to create a broad understanding of being an entrepreneurial university, so that the capacity building effort had a sustainable effect on the institutions themselves.
