3EP was an excellent international forum to interact with Entrepreneurship Educators and to exchange practical experience and best practice from several European states. The mentoring program facilitates the development of implementing the new ideas developed from the exchange. I have already implemented learnings from 3EP and continue to share ideas with 'new' international colleagues!
