NEBA Chairman Mr. Jouni Suonpää visited the Philippines in February 2019. NEBA was one of the organizers with EITSC (The European Innovation, Technology, and Science Center Foundation) and NordCham Philippines at a Business Seminar organized on the 14th of February in Manila.
The seminar focused on entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship development, and the common conlusion was that strong and new type of mentoring is needed to raise new entrepreneurs and intrepreneurs.
Mr. Henry Schumacher, the President of EITSC, was sharing from his experience about the critical factors of mentoring intrapreneurs, and Mr. Jouni Suonpää from NEBA introduced the concept of entrepreneurial training.

Good thing with new innovations and technological solutions is that it usually opens new perspectives and possibilities to do things. The same applies to education and teaching. New technological innovations are opening new possibilities to organize and provide training. We have good online platforms, excellent games to use as a tool for learning, programs to analyse learning results etc.
However, I would still like to point out, that the core of entrepreneurship is not changed and the entrepreneurial learning is not dependent of technical solutions but something else. What is entrepreneurship? How to learn entrepreneurship? [Read more…] about NEBA blog: New technology and teaching entrepreneurship
Adidas work is a must for an entrepreneur. It means literally footwork which he needs to engage himself guided by an entrepreneur’s mind. From a thought to an action is the world’s shortest route to work. To an entrepreneur it is never too long in any situation.
Adidas work comprises of clarifying issues and backgrounds, mapping out partners, collecting market information and seeking potential clientele. It is the necessary spadework in which one sweats and breaks ground digging beneath the surface as deep as the demand asks for. Sometimes it means physical action by getting out and networking or meeting potential customers. Other times it means seeking information from more than just one expert. This may cost euros at the time yet can possibly save them in the future. A business plan can be written in two days however with thorough adidas work it may take as long as two months.
The North European Business Academy (NEBA) continues building the NEBA network in Asia. The latest addition to our network is the Philippines.
Mr Jouni Suonpää, the NEBA Chairman, visited the capital Manila in November 2018 to discuss the possibilities of starting up NEBA operations with several possible partner organisations – universities, educational companies and NGOs. The organisations were interested in all three current operating areas of NEBA – business startup training, career guidance and teacher education.
We often hear somebody say that he or she would start a business if they only could find a good business idea to start with. At NEBA we believe that in many cases you only have to ask yourself one question to get started in being an entrepreneur: What do you have in your hand? The skills you have can be the foundation of a new business.
There are many business opportunities available around each of us. Sometimes you only need to come up with a good idea. Many well-known businesses have been based on a simple idea – something that would have been possible to invent for the most of us. [Read more…] about NEBA blog: Recognizing a business opportunity
