Global Entrepreneurial Talent Management 4

The GETM4 project builds on the successes and insights of its predecessor, GETM3, in addressing a combination of ‘wicked problems’ which disrupt, including a worldwide health crisis, political instability, climate change and rapid digitalization. In this evolving landscape, entrepreneurs play a critical role in driving innovation and resilience. However, fostering sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems and exploiting entrepreneurial traits in the workplace require new skills and approaches to adapt to and exploit disruption. GETM4’s mission is to address these needs through interdisciplinary research and international collaboration, focusing on entrepreneurial talent management globally. The overarching objective of GETM4 is to enhance health, well-being, happiness and sustainable development at individual, organisational and societal levels. This is achieved by developing entrepreneurial talent and action, supported by ethical and responsible digital innovation. To achieve these goals, GETM4 employs a four-dimensional approach: 1.Transnational: Engaging stakeholders from Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, South America and the Western Balkans. 2.Transectoral: Bridging academia, industry, and community stakeholders. 3.Transgenerational: Encouraging knowledge exchange between experienced and early career researchers. 4. Transdisciplinary: Integrating expertise from multiple fields, such as education, technology, law and entrepreneurship. This holistic approach ensures that impact is maximized and research capacity is developed across all participants. Working with 4 main stakeholder groups (entrepreneurs, HEIs, Industry and Communities) scientific, economic and societal impact is planned over our 5 geographical regions alongside creating new and lasting collaborations and self-sustaining partnerships, facilitating knowledge transfer and improving global research and innovation. In Europe, impact is achieved via institutions such as the European Institute of Innovation & Technology. In Sub Saharan Africa we target SDGs 8.6 (youth employment, education and and training) and 17.6 (triangular regional and international co-operation for access innovation etc). In S America we are cross-fertilising with other existing projects. In SE Asia we aim to internationalise HE and in the Western Balkans we work with the North Macedonian government on digitalisation, innovation and entrepreneurial education. Impact after 7 years will be achieved through the exploitation of results and outputs (deliverables) creating diverse outcomes via our dissemination, exploitation and communication plan spanning the gamut of possible pathways to impact such as promotion of products, communication of recommendations and policies, dissemination of results. Our work package dedicated to respectful translation (Global South to Global North) ensures we exploit the global nature of our project for everyone’s benefit.
