DIGIpreneur brings together 25 youth workers from five countries to explore how digital entrepreneurship can become a practical part of youth work. Through hands-on learning, participants will discover how to guide young people from the first spark of an idea to a responsible, creative and well-presented digital concept. The project connects entrepreneurship with AI, digital safety and non-formal education — turning youth workers into more confident mentors for the digital age.
Get ready for an 8-day journey where ideas turn into digital products! The programme follows the natural path of building a digital idea. We will begin by connecting as a group and exploring the entrepreneurial mindset, then dive into digital safety, AI, freelancing, product design, and marketing. Step by step, international teams will shape their own app concepts, test their thinking and prepare to present them. Between the workshops, there will be space for cultural exchange, reflection, creativity and plenty of learning from one another — ending with final pitches and a well-earned celebration.
