πŸ“–Our Story

From a podcast idea to an international NGO

Entrepreneurship Talks began as a student-led podcast project at the University of Patras in April 2022. Created by a group of passionate students eager to spark insightful conversations about entrepreneurship, it has since grown into a registered non-profit NGO and an EU-backed youth organization dedicated to inspiring the entrepreneurial spirit among young people.

What started as casual conversations has evolved into an international platform that connects aspiring entrepreneurs with founders, investors, and industry leaders through business trips to Stockholm and London, community meetups in Athens, and EU-funded educational programs.

Today, Entrepreneurship Talks goes far beyond podcasting β€” we organize international business trips, host community meetups, run workshops, and participate in Erasmus+ programs, all aimed at empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs across Europe.
