Winter might be coming but we are not slowing down. In cooperation with the Norwegian Funds, we are launching YES – Young Entrepreneurs Succeed program. YES is a unique proposition for young people who are looking for an opportunity to grow and develop their business skills. You will find out more about the program during the conference.
The conference provides you with a large dose of knowledge and allows the exchange of experience with experts or establishing new contacts. It is an opportunity to meet like-minded people whose focus is also mentoring and learning about competences of the future. Since the first edition, we’ve focused on the quality of speeches and merits of the lecture. Participation in the event is free. Our goal is to spread good practices, exchange knowledge and experiences, as well as increase the attractiveness of the region and create a favorable environment for young people.
To accomplish that, we organize an intensive support program for people up to 29 years old, educationally and professionally inactive, i.e. for NEETs (not in employment, education or training). Trainings and workshops conducted by experienced specialists and business practitioners are provided for participants of the YES program. In addition, participants will receive business mentoring, coaching and practical knowledge needed to success in business. An important element of the project is also the help in obtaining financing.
We are happy to inform you about the conference that will take place on November 29, 2019 at HUBHUB al. Jerozolimskie 93, 02-001 Warszawa. During the event, areas of cooperation will be presented to strengthen bilateral relations between those participating in the project.
The event will be held in English and will take the form of presentations and workshops, with the possibility to ask specific questions.
Admission to the event is free, but you must register. The number of places is limited, so we encourage you to register beforehand.
