About Creative Spark
CREATIVE SPARK is a space for connection, collaboration and inspiration of ideas that combines creativity, technology, knowledge, imagination and experience among entrepreneurs, academia and other actors in entrepreneurship and innovation. It also contributes to the evolution of companies and the expansion of businesses in a local and international context. Creative Spark is developed by one of the most successful and diverse academic-entrepreneurial platforms in Germany, the International Entrepreneurship-Lab Smart Money (IELSM). On this occasion, the National University of Costa Rica will be the host for personalities and participants from other universities, business organizations and other institutions from Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia. This event is a reference in Latin America to promote international entrepreneurship.
Welcome to IELSM Creative Spark
The current scenario shows a greater participation of women in the economy of entrepreneurship and innovation. This requires constant intervention and support to enhance and take advantage of the great skills, creativity, ideas and knowledge of women entrepreneurs, integrating strategies linked to digital transformation and environmental sustainability. The IELSM Creative Spark in Latin America represents a unique opportunity for female entrepreneurship to connect academia with business and entrepreneurship. Women entrepreneurs will be able to learn about new international approaches to readapting their business models and will have the opportunity to share their experiences and successes with international experts, academics and businessmen and women. Within Creative Spark, women entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to participate in: Creative Spark Entrepreneurial Business Workshops, World Café with Women Entrepreneurs, Business and Entrepreneurship Networking.
