Estonian Business School celebrates once again a significant milestone in late June as ambitious, entrepreneurial, and responsible high school and university graduates with diverse knowledge and practical skills are sent off into the world of business and commerce.

Entrepreneurship education has always been a challenging task, yet the EBS Impactful Entrepreneurship programme has managed to breathe new life into it. Entrepreneurship education shouldn't merely entail the transmission of business knowledge but should also help shape an entrepreneurial mindset, considering the broader social context in which entrepreneurship operates today. Thus, the innovative Impactful Entrepreneurship curriculum at EBS aims not only to develop students' practical entrepreneurial skills but also to broaden their worldview, encouraging them to act responsibly and creatively.

The Inspiration of the Year award is a recognition jointly presented by EBS (Estonian Business School) and the OIXIO Group to an individual or organisation who has made an outstanding contribution to the innovative development of Estonian society. A role model in shaping Estonia’s future.

Many of us reach a point in our professional lives when we ask ourselves, “Is this it?” The routine becomes too comfortable, growth stagnates, and the thought emerges that there might be something more. The desire to grow, to think on a larger scale, and to do something meaningful is not accidental. At such a moment, education becomes a strategic tool.

The year was 1988; the ideological directions were set, but one man, Madis Habakuk, envisioned a different future... For 35 years, EBS has been striving towards this alternative future every day. This remains crucial today, as we face changing expectations from people and society towards education. Education is and will always be the foundation upon which individuals can build a strong career and life.
