Fostering entrepreneurial spirit
In order to foster entrepreneurial attitude and improve the sentiments towards entrepreneurship within society, the BMDW supports a number of measures implemented at school level in an effort to promote interest in, and curiosity for, a career as an entrepreneur. Kindling entrepreneurial spirit through education from an early stage on is a crucial step along the way.
