Get xPEERience
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Three business support centres, Adam Mickiewicz University Foundation in Poznań, Instituto Pedro Nunes and Instituto Pedro Nunes Incubator in Coimbra, over 2000 kilometres away from each other yet close regarding profiles of operation, decided to join forces in order to increase quality of their services for youth through project "Get xPEERience". "Get xPEERience" project parcticipants will be 30 people who have direct contact with youth in their daily professional activities. They promote entrepreneurship among young people, help in chaning business ideas into real business activity, lead trainings connected to youth entrepreneurship within original courses and support young entrepreneurs in their first years of business operation. In the project there are 4 main activities planned (2 visits from Poland to Portugal and 2 visits from Portugal to Poland). First visit will allow participants to broaden the knowledge in internationalization programmes and soft-landing programmes. Second visit will enable participants to cultivate coach skills in areas such as: business models, marketing and PR, building company's strategy. Third visit will allow to develop more effective methods of reaching youth with both institutions' offers. Last visit will provide meetings with young entrepreneurs from both institutions, local institutions' employees and academic background workers. Methodology used in this project covers informal education activities such as: visits, experience exchange, workshops, case study, meetings, networking, discussions and creativity sessions. "Get xPEERience" project parcticipants, as a result of visits' execution, would increase their competences, knowledge and professional experience in ares chosen for each participants' group. Ultimately, the project will enhance the quality of services, offered by both institutions, that are adressed to young people. Additionally, it will increase youth awareness and knowledge of European Union programmes, especially Erasmus+. Visits will enable to establish contact network between both institutions which will lead to better quality of work with youth in entrepreneurship and business awareness. It will also unlock a possibility of further cooperation between clients of both institutions.
