– I would recommend everyone to apply, even if they don’t have a clear business idea. Mentors are there to help in the formation of an idea, to separate the essential from the unimportant. Then there are great, professional lecturers on topics I didn’t know I needed. And wonderful colleagues, companions, who are in the same sauce, new acquaintances and contacts that are worth their weight in gold. Great, positive energy, lots of laughter, lots of support, ambition, the atmosphere just sweeps you away. You realize how important it is to surround yourself with people with the same world view, a vision of a better future, creative and brave young people who will surely change the world for the better –points out Teodora Delic, an alumna, who today successfully runs her business Leave the Sugar.

The path from an idea to creating your own business is long, full of challenges, unknowns, doubts and pitfalls. Most often, the fear of ignorance is the biggest obstacle to what we deeply believe in becoming our business. Once you master the necessary skills, everything is easier, adds Teodora.

According to statistics from 2022. in 2021, 220 young people founded their own companies. immediately after coming of age, while the data for 2022. we are still waiting for a year.
