The track invites diverse perspectives on how creativity can be leveraged not just to survive disruption, but to shape more inclusive, sustainable, and agile futures across public, private, and civic domains.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Goal 3: Good health and well-being for people; Goal 4: Quality education; Goal 5: Gender equality; Goal 10: Reducing inequalities; Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Karina Cagarman, karina.cagarman@tu-berlin.de<\/p>\n<div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_11-designing-futures-life-design-positive-psychology-and-entrepreneurial-action-for-flourishing-well-being-societal-impact\/'>T03_11 - Designing Futures: Life Design, Positive Psychology, and Entrepreneurial Action for Flourishing, Well-Being & Societal Impact<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_11-designing-futures-life-design-positive-psychology-and-entrepreneurial-action-for-flourishing-well-being-societal-impact\/?wpdmdl=6554&refresh=69e460ece22821776574700\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>On the occasion of the EURAM 2026 conference, this track was merged with track T03_15 &#8211; Entrepreneurship and Creativity in Times of Disruption: Navigating Transformations in the Creative Economy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>T03_12 &#8211; Women Entrepreneurs in Times of Disruption: Adapting, Resisting, and Reimagining<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This topic explores how women entrepreneurs navigate turbulent environments shaped by digital transitions, institutional disruptions, and socio-cultural inequalities. It focuses on strategies of resilience, innovation, and care, particularly in underexplored contexts such as family firms, student entrepreneurship, and socially engaged ventures. The session seeks to highlight how women contest structural constraints, adapt to uncertainty, and reconfigure entrepreneurial norms through alternative practices. Drawing on feminist and intersectional perspectives, we invite contributions that examine the gendered nature of disruption, legitimacy-building processes, and inclusive forms of business creation that challenge traditional growth logics and emphasize purpose, sustainability, and community engagement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Goal 4: Quality education; Goal 5: Gender equality; Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth; Goal 10: Reducing inequalities<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mathieu Dunes, mathieu.dunes@u-picardie.fr<\/p>\n<div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_12-women-entrepreneurs-in-times-of-disruption-adapting-resisting-and-reimagining\/'>T03_12 - Women Entrepreneurs in Times of Disruption: Adapting, Resisting, and Reimagining<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_12-women-entrepreneurs-in-times-of-disruption-adapting-resisting-and-reimagining\/?wpdmdl=6556&refresh=69e460ece4ff31776574700\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>T03_14 &#8211; Early-stage entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial support organizations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Early-stage entrepreneurship is about how new ideas emerge and develop into new ventures. Entrepreneurial support organizations\u2014such as incubators, accelerators, and venture studios\u2014are pivotal actors here. We invite theoretical, empirical, and conceptual studies of the roles, effectiveness and evolution of (the interaction between) entrepreneurs, support organizations and other key actors. We also invite studies adopting a design science approach. Topic sessions will consist of 10-minute paper presentations followed by two short rounds of 4-minutes of developmental feedback by discussants. The topic is relevant to scholars in entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial ecosystems, innovation ecosystems, organization design and digital transformation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy; Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth; Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production; Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Georges Romme, sjoerdromme@gmail.com<\/p>\n<div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_14-early-stage-entrepreneurship-and-entrepreneurial-support-organizations\/'>T03_14 - Early-stage entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial support organizations<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t03_14-early-stage-entrepreneurship-and-entrepreneurial-support-organizations\/?wpdmdl=6560&refresh=69e460ece7ed01776574700\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<h3>T03_16 &#8211; Macro-preneurship and the Entrepreneurial State: Global Models of Policy-driven Economic Transformation<\/h3>\n<p>This track investigates macro-preneurship, positioning the state as an entrepreneurial actor that launches policy-led ventures and drives the transition toward knowledge-based, innovation-driven economies. Examples include, India\u2019s Make in India, Saudi Arabia\u2019s Vision 2030, and Germany\u2019s Industrie 4.0, where governments lead and instigate transformation in sectors such as tourism, logistics, education, and energy. The track invites conceptual and empirical work that explores globally transferable models of entrepreneurial states and their impact across public and private sectors. This includes growing attention to green transformation, as many of these national strategies invest in environmental innovation and sustainable infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Goal 1: No poverty; Goal 3: Good health and well-being for people; Goal 4: Quality education; Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities; Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bassem Nasri , Prince Mohammed Bin Fahd University,\u00a0bnasri@pmu.edu.sa<\/p>\n<div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t01_16-macro-preneurship-and-the-entrepreneurial-state-global-models-of-policy-driven-economic-transformation\/'>T03_16 - Macro-preneurship and the Entrepreneurial State: Global Models of Policy-driven Economic Transformation<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/download\/t01_16-macro-preneurship-and-the-entrepreneurial-state-global-models-of-policy-driven-economic-transformation\/?wpdmdl=6692&refresh=69e460ecead9a1776574700\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ConnectiveDocSignExtentionInstalled\" data-extension-version=\"1.0.4\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-453","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=453"}],"version-history":[{"count":86,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/453\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7512,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/453\/revisions\/7512"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2026conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
