They are structured as follows: The first part of the appendix consists of the good practice cases from HEIs around Europe. They are listed in alphabetical order after the name of the institution in ques- tion. Then follows the three interviews with representatives of pan-European organisations, also listed alphabetically, and finally three interviews with representatives of Euro- pean governments, who give insight into how they support entrepreneurship in higher education in Europe.

The keywords are: • Action learning • Action plan • Advisory service • Alumni involvement • Art • Business studies • Close to praxis • Collaboration with local business • Community engagement • Compulsory course • Cross-discipline collaboration • Cross-institutional collaboration • Curricular embeddedness • Design • ECTS • Engineering • Entrepreneurship centre • Entrepreneurship professor • EU funding • Evaluation and assessment • External funding • Extracurricular activity • Facilitation • Funding • Goals and objectives • Growth entrepreneurship • Humanities • Income generation • Incubator Appendix B • Good-practice examples 1 • Innovation • Intrapreneurship • Involving process • Knowledge-intensive • Lecturing • Media coverage • Medicine • Meta-competencies • Mission statement • Motivational structures • Natural sciences • Pedagogical tool • Person-driven • Policy • Problem-based learning • Process-oriented learning • Professional development • Project • Second-generation entrepreneurship • Self-realisation • Simulation • Social sciences • Student camp model • Student incubator • Workshop 2 Appendix B • Good-practice examples 1. BOCCONI UNIVERSITY, ITALY Interviewees: Associate professor Carlo Salvato, Director of the Master of Science in Management Keywords: EU funding, ECTS, entrepreneurship professor, business studies, policy Context The Bocconi University was founded in 1902 and is regarded as one of the top univer- sities in Italy within business and management.
