PROJECT OVERVIEW

MY SITE is a project funded by Erasmus+, that aims to train youth residing in Greece – regardless of their background – and help them acquire the tools and skills needed to further develop their business idea and become successful entrepreneurs. The overall objective is to promote entrepreneurship as a means towards social inclusion and integration for both Greeks and third-country nationals, who are often excluded from the labour market thus inhibiting social interaction and exchange.

The project is co-developed and implemented by NGOs and their partners in 5 EU countries (Spain, Italy, Malta, Cyprus, and Greece).

Entrepreneurship training

• 25 hours of training, covering the following topics:
  • finding your niche
  • business plan development
  • financial management and accounting principles
  • communications & marketing
  • funding opportunities
• Interactive and engaging training sessions, held by qualified trainers
• Training will be conducted in group sessions
• Training will be conducted in English

Mentorship scheme

To complement the entrepreneurship training and assist young individuals in successfully developing their business plans and uncovering potential opportunities, while adequately preparing for the risks lying ahead, the project incorporates a mentoring scheme. Candidates will be paired with a mentor, according to their business idea, to support and guide them throughout the training cycle and provide their expert advice on the topics at hand.

All courses will be conducted in English.
