Today, the Hincks Centre's led CPEER - Community of Practice for Entrepreneurship Educators and Researchers, held their first in-person gathering since 2020!

We were delighted to have a diverse group of lecturers, Heads of School, support staff and researchers at the gathering on the Bishopstown Campus. It was great to talk about all-things entrepreneurship education and research with the discussion on new opportunities for collaboration across the University.

This open forum was followed by an excellent presentation by Sarah Davis and Ana Cruz Garcia on their research on female entrepreneurship and the use of metaphors. The paper titled ‘Pushing your horrible rock up the hill’: Challenging gender neutrality in the entrepreneurial ecosystem through a framework of root metaphors' will be presented at this year’s ISBE conference.

CPEER is a great place to have a ‘dry run’ at presenting new research before a conference or viva.

If you would like to get involved with CPEER, please contact the Hincks Centre.
