New updates will be posted soon.

Dedicated to excellence

The Triple E Awards are a global recognition of efforts towards the quest for entrepreneurship and engagement in higher education. It is the first award to focus specifically on different dimensions of the universities' third mission. The Triple E Awards aim to foster change in universities and to emphasize their role in their communities and ecosystems.

The Awards are organised in 4 regions around the world (Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia-Pacific). This year, we will host the Award Ceremonies in Sao Paulo (Americas Awards), Lisbon (European and African Awards) and Kuala Lumpur (Asia-Pacific Awards).

Submission is open to all higher education institutions (including colleges) as well as institutions clearly linked to higher education (e.g. external TTOs or incubators). Awardees will be selected through a two-stage process: after the shortlisting of the top 5 entries in each category in each region, additional information needs to be submitted which will serve as the basis for the final ranking of the entries and the selecting of the category winner. The winners will be presented at the Awards Ceremony.
