Why the BOLD Regional Workshop?

Practical Education
Through a hands-on approach and dynamic sessions, you will learn how to build, test, and pitch ideas on the spot. You will be thinking outside of the box while gaining practical know-how that you can apply to any future professional opportunity.

Inspiration

We work with top-notch facilitators and industry experts in the region and the U.S. to bring you to your future community and meet like-minded peers. Be open-minded and ready to thrive personally and professionally.

Network

We aim to create a supportive environment of link-minded youth coming from across the Western Balkans that are eager to learn more about entrepreneurship and expand their regional community.

Method

We don’t lecture but rather provide you with the tools and resources so you and your peers can be the leaders that can take on real challenges and turn them into ideas and skillsets. Practical entrepreneurship is not a unique trait for startup founders alone, it’s a way of life that can be applied in any industry or profession.
