These entrepreneurship programmes are organised by the Instituto Tecnológico de Murcia (Murcian Institute of Technology) of the UCAM together with the Fundación Incyde, and financed by the European Social Fund.
UCAM offers three entrepreneurship programmes, together with the Fundación Incyde, with the aim of meeting the current demands of the labour market in terms of new professional profiles. All of these courses are free, taught online and have a duration of seven weeks.

A project which will be designed for small and medium-sized industrial companies. This programme will start on Monday 27. Those enrolled in the course will receive personalised and practical advice.
Food and sport
The UCAM promotes entrepreneurial talent oriented towards Health, Sports and Food. Therefore, it is launching the 2nd edition of the Food Entrepreneurship Programme: trends and new business models, which will commence on 4 October. This programme seeks to promote the entrepreneurial spirit and the promotion of new viable and sustainable business models, allowing students to identify opportunities and trends, and contributing to the development of the competitiveness of agri-food companies.
