Coventry University prides itself on its approach to enterprise and entrepreneurship. The International Centre for Transformational Entrepreneurship (ICTE) is a unique research and teaching subject group formed to support sustainable socio-economic transformation through systemic approaches to entrepreneurship in communities nationally and internationally. This is achieved through a focus on Entrepreneurial Leadership, Entrepreneurial Education, and Innovation. The research that we undertake informs our thinking and our actions.

At ICTE our research aims to support economic development and policy impact through project engagement and consultancy. Education is at the heart of economic transformation and entrepreneurial education supports socio-economic growth, enhances social capital and reduces inequality. ICTE offers a range of academic programmes including a BA in Enterprise and Entrepreneurship, a BA in Business Enterprise and Innovation Management and a Masters in International Entrepreneurship. For academics who wish to formalise their training and experience as enterprise educators, ICTE also offers CPD and train-the-trainer programmes.
