Our 2026 International Entrepreneurship Educators Conference will be hosted by Nottingham Trent University in the heart of the city of Nottingham, from 2nd to 4th September 2026. Registrations will open in 2026.

Marking two decades of advancing enterprise and entrepreneurship education, IEEC2026 will bring together global educators, practitioners, and policymakers to shape the future of entrepreneurial learning and practice. Hosted in partnership with Nottingham Business School, renowned for its excellence in enterprise, innovation, and impactful research, this milestone event promises to be an inspiring celebration of progress, collaboration, and bold thinking.

The conference will explore how entrepreneurial activity can be embedded across and beyond higher and further education, highlighting cross-disciplinary innovation, policy development, and transformative teaching practice. Delegates will have the opportunity to connect, collaborate, and contribute to discussions that drive sustainable enterprise and inclusive growth worldwide.

Nottingham provides an exceptional backdrop for this landmark anniversary. The city is recognised as a thriving hub for innovation and enterprise, with strengths across life sciences, healthcare, advanced manufacturing, engineering, and the creative industries. Its strong university–industry partnerships and dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem continue to deliver meaningful impact regionally, nationally, and globally.

As we celebrate 20 years of the International Entrepreneurship Educators Conference, IEEC2026 will offer a unique opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reshape the future of enterprise and entrepreneurship education. We look forward to welcoming you in Nottingham next September. For details of previous IEECs, please visit the IEEC website here.
