The purpose of the proposed visit to Portugal is to provide students a broad understanding of the ecosystem for entrepreneurship in general and in the social sector in Portugal with an emphasis on the role of government in enabling the framework conditions. Portugal was chosen since it is Europe's innovation-driven economy that has made a quick recovery from the post-2008 financial crisis with an investment in growth of its entrepreneurial economy. In addition, it has a well-developed business infrastructure in its educational institutions and business incubators (150+) along with a targeted availability of risk capital to support new venture creation and growth. The carefully curated visit includes a balanced mix of visits with universities, business incubators and cultural sights that align with proposed learning objectives in the course. This short-term course-embedded trip seeks to create a memorable and deep learning experience for the students through pre and post travel components that prepare them for the visit through targeted readings, discussions and videos and encourage reflective learning from the immersive experience while developing global competencies and cross-cultural skills, attitudes and behaviors that enable them to thrive in an interconnected global world.
