#geacollegeEvery one of us wants to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. In today's world we have set up very high standards for ourselves and others, and with the new generations coming forward, changes are happening with the speed of light. GEA College is an educational institution, but today offering just an education is not enough. Younger generations need to be empowered, we have to give them direction and knowledge that enables them to live a full life. It is important for society in general. It’s not an easy task but it is possible. We believe in it. We believe that having a certain set of values and living them is the keystone of society and advancement. It’s not enough that they are written and that we read them out loud every once in a while. We have to live them. Only that leads to younger generations adopting them and passing them forward. We trust in the power of connecting young individuals with seasoned elders. Many of our success stories have confirmed our beliefs. That is the main reason we work hard to connect our students with the economy and successful entrepreneurs, tying the connections here and abroad. We spread values like entrepreneurship, inventiveness, and being different, recognizable, and bold, both in formal and informal education. In all the study programs we offer, theory and practical training are intertwined, and the focus is on connecting with the economy during studies.
We are focusing on entrepreneurship and management for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as family businesses that are hidden treasure of inventiveness and audacity. These are the companies that pour their heart into business and are quickly adaptable. These are the companies with huge potential as new generations will lead them. And this is our key role – supporting them so they can showcase their inventiveness and boldness, and teaching them contemporary approaches to managing the company. This is where our future lies.
While GEA College seeks to remain small and agile, it has developed into one of the largest centres of entrepreneurship education in Slovenia. Here we co-create conditions for the development of the global business environment by spreading the entrepreneurial mindset and teaching entrepreneurship and related business sciences. We create new knowledge through research and transfer it into practice, thus connecting science with the economy. We encourage innovation and creativity, which will lead to new business ideas and the identification of business opportunities feasible in practice. Our core values make us entrepreneurial, different, recognizable, innovative and bold.
