In May, the consortium meeting for the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs took place in Bratislava, Slovakia. The Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme is a cross-border exchange programme which gives new or aspiring entrepreneurs the chance to learn from experienced entrepreneurs running small businesses in other participating countries.

Dublin Chamber works with both host and new entrepreneurs to grow and expand their businesses through the program. The exchange of experience takes place during a stay with the experienced entrepreneur, which helps the new entrepreneur acquire the skills needed to run a small firm. The host benefits from fresh perspectives on his/her business and gets the opportunities to cooperate with foreign partners or learn about new markets.

If you are a business with more than 3 years' experience and would like to mentor a new entrepreneur or if you are a business with less than 3 years’ experience and would like to benefit from mentoring please contact, maria@dublinchamber.ie
