Initial situation

Unemployment in Southern Europe continues. Meanwhile, even university graduates are finding it more difficult to enter the labour market. A proven driver for economic growth and job creation is investment in start-up support. Since the share of young entrepreneurs in Southern Europe is still low, initiatives are to be developed for this target group.

Target groups and their benefits

The ICT Entrepreneur project is aimed at students and graduates of IT degree programmes who are to be enabled to start a business. 

Project goal

The ICT Entrepreneur project aims to increase the proportion of entrepreneurs in IT degree programmes by developing a training concept to promote start-ups in IT degree programmes and making the programme accessible to educational institutions and regional actors.  The aim is to transfer the good case studies from the northern countries of the European Union to southern Europe and thus promote the performance of the regions. Central partners here are incubators and business incubators.

Role of ISOB
