Applications call for Citizen Entrepreneurship Competition 2020. The Citizen Entrepreneurship Competition (CEC) is a part of the Entrepreneurship Campus and was basically initiated to empower entrepreneurs all around the world to create innovative answers to global and/or community challenges and to engage in a more peaceful and sustainable world.
