Knowledge-driven global economies demand more emphasis on social inclusion, social equality and engaging society in research and innovation processes to generate solutions responsive to societal needs. Such aspirations can only be achieved through open collaborative, cooperative engagement between quadruple helix (QH) actors in any given society. The foundation stone of developing such a socially aware entrepreneurial society is: Education. To fulfil these goals, the European Corporate Social Entrepreneurship curriculum (EMBRACE) project, resulting in EMBRACEedulab, will (i) establish, within the framework of the Social Business Initiative, a favourable climate for all QH actors to be actively informed of the need for Corporate Social Entrepreneurship. This will be achieved through the consortium’s unique horizon scanning mechanism that identifies disruptive technological and societal trends; (ii) co-design, co-create, co-develop and co-implement an innovative, multidisciplinary European Corporate Social Entrepreneurship Curriculum (ECSEC) to be incorporated into HEI education programmes across all disciplines. The output of which will be more rounded, employable graduates capable of contributing immediately to their employers’ intrapreneurial and social responsibilities, and (iii) establish a sustainable environment that facilitates the co-creation and exchange of knowledge between HEIs and enterprises; resulting in the creation of new business opportunities addressing societal needs.Together, these will generate a scheme of transversal skills learning and application throughout HEIs which are transferable to industry/business communities – the EMBRACEedulab. The legacy, therefore, of the EMBRACE project is the multidisciplinary EMBRACEedulab - a set of tried and tested educational programmes and stakeholder collaborative engagement methodologies and methods to facilitate embedding Corporate Social Entrepreneurship within regions.
