Entrepreneurial Agora
The Entrepreneurial Agora program was established under the auspices of the Institute of Business Administration of the Faculty of Economics within the framework of the EFOP 3.4.3-16-2016-00015 project entitled FŐNIX ME ”- Renewable University Institutional Developments in Higher Education for the Joint Improvement of the Quality and Accessibility of Higher Education.
