About Minerva Bridge
Minerva Bridge is a network for business people who would like to contribute to entrepreneurship at the 11 universities in the Øresund Region as guest lecturers or other. Companies and knowledge institutions do not necessarily meet. The benefits of the two sides joining forces are obvious, therefore, a network has been created. The goal of the network is to strengthen entrepreneurship education and add value for universities, business lecturers, and students. It is an entrepreneurship-network of entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs.
