Actualmente, el tema del emprendimiento es un concepto relevante en la mayoría de escuelas de administración en el mundo, no solo por ser el catalizador de cambios estructurales sobre las economías globales, dado el alto valor en innovación que genera, sino también, debido a su importancia para el desarrollo económico y social sostenible de los países. CREO es una organización de educación no formal que a través de sus servicios, ayuda a las instituciones de educación formal a educar sus estudiantes en el ámbito del emprendimiento. En Colombia no existen empresas dedicadas un 100% de su operación a prestar un servicio que apunte a suplir el tipo de necesidad que CREO pretende suplir; o sea, desarrollar un espacio que apoye e impulse el emprendimiento en las instituciones de educación formal. Por esta razón que la organización dirige sus esfuerzos en orientar y capacitar jóvenes estudiantes que se encuentran en los niveles de educación básica secundaria y media vocacional de los colegios de Bogotá, para formar en ellos agentes de cambio que contribuyan al desarrollo económico, social y cultural de la ciudad, a través de la promoción de la cultura del emprendimiento y el desarrollo empresarial.
