EEUK Special Interest Groups (SIG’s) are designed to foster a sense of connection across domains, bringing together Enterprise Educators around areas of common interest. These vibrant networks are catalysts for change, enabling excellence and knowledge exchange across a wide variety of subject areas. Through regular interaction with segments of the EEUK network, our SIG’s nurture knowledge and understanding, develop practice and enhance impact.
A SIG is a group of people who come together around a shared interest and a passion to share knowledge and improve research and/or practice. They often cross geographical and professional boundaries and are self-managed by members of the community.

Entrepreneurial Coaching is increasingly used across enterprise education and startup support, but it remains under-defined as a distinct practice. This SIG brings together enterprise educators, coaches and practitioner-researchers to share approaches, strengthen professional practice, and build an evidence base for coaching entrepreneurs.
