The partners of the project – Italian Chamber of Commerce for Spain, the Hive, DomSpain, SYNTHESIS Center for Research and Education, Fondazione Edulife, European Social Entrepreneurship and Innovative studies Institute and Coopération Bancaire pour l’Europe – met the 9th and 10th of January 2023 in Madrid, Spain hosted by CCIS Madrid to kick-off the project!

This kick-off meeting allowed us to meet and get to know each other in person, begin to define the necessary aspects of the project and assign the first tasks to the partnership.

We cannot wait to start working together and bring this magnificent project to fruition!

 

The SCALE-UP project aims to foster the acquisition of entrepreneurial skills by (current and future) women entrepreneurs interested in the social sectors, through participation in vocational training and the training of professionals supporting them (trainers and business coaches). In particular, the project intends to support women entrepreneurs in accessing finance and in making their businesses sustainable and competitive on the labour market, by raising their awareness and training them on possible obstacles to achieving entrepreneurial goals and running a social enterprise.

Through SCALE-UP, the acquisition of entrepreneurial skills by women entrepreneurs (current and future) interested in social sectors will be promoted through participation in vocational training courses and the training of professionals supporting them (trainers and business coaches). In addition, there will be important support for women in accessing finance and in making their businesses sustainable/competitive in the labour market.
