What is the Global Research Network (GRN)?
The Global Research Network (GRN) aims to understand how individuals, organizations, and entrepreneurial ecosystems create value, develop entrepreneurial intelligence, and drive innovation through interaction with artificial intelligence. Through a dynamic international research architecture, we connect researchers, universities, entrepreneurs, and innovation leaders to generate scientific knowledge, promote global collaboration, and develop new ways of researching entrepreneurship in real-world settings, thereby contributing to a new generation of applied research based on living labs, human–AI intelligence, and sustainable value creation.
The IELSM has built an innovative environment where students, catalysts, entrepreneurs, and researchers develop real business models using international entrepreneurship methodologies, validation systems, scaling processes, and analysis supported by artificial intelligence.
