Abstract

ITESO, located in Western Mexico, is a private institution of higher education committed to sustainable development and social justice. In its educational model, ITESO has established certain competencies that all of its undergraduate students are expected to develop, and one of them is innovation and entrepreneurship. In order to enhance this competency, students from the areas of engineering, humanities, and business -- the three divisions which the University’s undergraduate programs are organized -- collaborate within an internal ecosystem that is being redesigned continuously with an eye towards sustainability-oriented entrepreneurship. This university initiative started as a pilot program in 2013, and is strategically documented in the current academic development plan.
