This project is the latest in a series of successful projects of the ESA partnership. It builds on previous work about inclusion, volunteering and solidarity and now moves into the world of work emphasising entrepreneurship and the opportunities that are available to our students in a pan-European context.This project provided a number of benefits to students, teachers, schools and their wider communities including business partners. It promoted creativity and enabled students to focus on their own strengths to make good choices on future career paths, to develop necessary skills, to create global networks and to broaden their horizons.As there are ten schools from nine countries across Europe, there have been several hundred participants every year the past three years, including students, staff, stakeholders and businesspartners. We've particularly encouraged the participation of target groups such as those facing significant disadvantages.Project activities have included field and desk research, the creation and manufacture of services or products, student participation in international competition and the completion of the evaluation process, both to inform the current project and as a basis for future initiatives. Methodologies employed in the above activities have emphasised teamwork and collaboration across borders. Skills development and confidence builiding were also a key focus.The results and impacts included international interaction between participants and an enhancing of student creativity and other business skills. The website www.beee.eu includes a learning platform, which will be available as a resource for participants and others. We anticipate a more international ethos and entrepreneurial spirit as a result of the project.From the students survey analysis we have found that students develop an awareness of the skills necessary for work and are motivated to achieve these skills. In some schools students have chosen more business related classes as a direct consequence. The students have encountered the merits and opportunities of starting or joining the business sector. This has broadened their horizon and brought insight in what the business sector has to offer. We believe that partnerships formed between students themselves and between students, schools and businesses will lead to long term sustainable benefits. Overall schools and students will foster closer international ties and a more international outlook on the business sector as a whole.
