EMEN is a European Project aims at supporting the creation, the improvement and the wider dissemination of support schemes for migrant entrepreneurs in order to help migrants to become self-employed and build a successful enterprise.

The project focuses on sharing approaches and lessons learnt across and between public administrations, business development support and financial organisations, social enterprises, non-profit organisations, educational institutions and other public and private organisations supporting migrant entrepreneurship at all levels: cities, regions and countries.

Based on the concept of a supportive ecosystem, the partnership brought together relevant players at European, national and regional levels to form transnational networks. These are conceived as being Communities of Practice (CoP), within which practitioners can share their knowledge and experience and learn from each other.  The CoP were focused on: coaching and mentoring, access to finance and Professionalisation & Diversity Management.
