USJ, through the OSAA, encourages students and the wider community to engage in entrepreneurship activities that promote sustainable businesses. Macao has the advantages of being located in the rapidly developing Greater Bay Area and having a favourable positioning as a Commercial and Trade Cooperation Service Platform between China and Portuguese-speaking Countries.

Our University engages with the government and different organisations to provide entrepreneurial opportunities.  We are committed to support the development of entrepreneurship and offer start-up opportunities in terms of capital, resources, space, and networking, such as the Cultural Industries Fund, the Economic and Technological Development Bureau (DSEDT), the Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute, the Talents Development Committee, the Youth Entrepreneurship, and Innovation Preparatory Committee, the Macao Young Entrepreneur Incubation Centre, the Macau Startup Club, 369 Co-op Town, and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Cooperation Platform of Zhongshan city (WeChat Official Account: 中山市易创空间创业孵化基地).

Updated information on entrepreneurship opportunities is regularly made public to the community on our website and sent to students and alumni via email. We invite all those interested to kindly check it regularly.
