Mentor Up, Scale Up! Online Mentoring Platform for Young Entrepreneurs
Background
Our consortium has implemented an Erasmus + KA2 strategic partnerships project (Youth Field) called 'SPINENT' (https://spinent.eu/) that encourages young people to become technology focused sport entrepreneurs in 2018-2019. In the project SPINENT, research was conducted to find out the educational needs of 200 young people in sports entrepreneurship. Interviews and focus group meetings with education planners, youth workers, and academics were held. At the end of the project, an interactive guide, toolkit, and online training course were developed to encourage young people to become technology-focused sport entrepreneurs. Then, these training materials were tested with the participation of 10 young entrepreneur candidates in the 5-day transnational learning activity organised in Murcia, Spain.
Currently, our consortium has developed a new project called "SPINENT 2.0: Mentor Up, Scale Up! Online Mentoring Platform for Young Sport Entrepreneurs", which is the continuation of the SPINENT project and will increase its impact. In line with all of the above-mentioned background, the project (SPINENT 2.0) is focused on technological entrepreneurship in sport, physical activity, and wellbeing.
Objectives
The overall objectives of SPINENT 2.0 are to:
• contribute to innovative approaches to youth entrepreneurship through mentorship opportunities, pre-incubator programs and attractive educational resources in line with individual needs and expectations;
• contribute to encouraging greater allocation of financial resources for sport / wellbeing entrepreneurship through long-term positive impact on young people, related participants, and organisations.
The special aims of the project are to:
• support young entrepreneur candidates by guiding and accelerating them through the development of the innovative mentoring platform and engaging them in the intensive dissemination and exploitation of existing intellectual outputs (interactive guideline, toolkits, and online training courses) produced in the SPINENT project;
• promote technological entrepreneurship among young people through local and transnational activities that will encourage them to put ideas into practice in the sports and wellbeing sectors.
The direct target group of the project is potential young entrepreneur candidates (18–30 years old), including those at risk for social exclusion (unemployed young people, early school leavers, young people who are out of the education and labor market, young refugees, etc.) in participant countries. The final beneficiaries of the project are young entrepreneurs, youth workers and educators, youth organisations, lecturers, start-ups, accelerators and incubation centers, innovation and technology centers and networks, universities and research centers and investors across the Europe.
