One step closer to becoming entrepreneurs

Boosting the entrepreneurial skills of female students
On 25 April, we celebrate ‘International Girls in ICT Day’, an initiative backed by the International Telecommunication Union, a specialised agency of the United Nations.
To mark this annual event, the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is pleased to report that more than 500 female students participated in the first round of ‘Inspirational Leadership & Entrepreneurship’ workshops that took place in Croatia, Italy, Montenegro, Turkey, and the Republic of North Macedonia.
