Since 2009 The Center for Entrepreneurship and Economic Development (CEED) has hosted Global Entrepreneurship Week in Montenegro. Striving to create a successful event, CEED has confirmed its desire to support and promote the idea of entrepreneurship, private property and free markets, and in this way support any initiative that leads to the realization of business ideas. For 2012 CEED has organized a handful of activities in Montenegro including:

• - Supporting the organization of a school of entrepreneurship and innovation for youth.  For the third year in a row the school is organized for graduates of the University of Donja Gorica, and is intended for high school students from across Montenegro.
