Entrepreneurship and Agribusiness

Entrepreneurial thinking and action form the foundation for the development of farms and organisations. Increasingly, farmers’ associations recognise that targeted training opportunities can open up pathways for their members towards economically successful and diversified farming.

Entrepreneurs constantly have the opportunity to further develop their enterprises: to put new ideas into practice, to increase efficiency, and to optimise profits. Yet it is not only about economic success – it is also about purpose, value creation, health, and sustainability.

We support people in testing their entrepreneurial ideas, setting priorities, and keeping an overview. With practical methods and diverse formats, we help them to manage successfully in the long term – while also creating what truly matters: joy and fulfilment in their work.

Our Offer

Our entrepreneurship programmes are designed for organisations, businesses, and individuals alike. Through our Training of Trainers programmes, we enable organisations to continuously support their members on the path to entrepreneurial success.

In addition, we work with farms, agribusinesses, and individual agripreneurs to help them discover and successfully pursue their own entrepreneurial pathways. This is complemented by exchange programmes, exposure visits, and networking events that foster connections, knowledge transfer, and sustainable success in the agri-food sector.
