PRIVACY POLICY
The STARTAB Programme is delivered by Corallia with the support of Prince’s Trust International and it is offered free of charge to young people aged 18-35. Participants can develop a business idea through a specialized Workshop and then attend a 4-day interactive and free Entrepreneurship Course, where through workshops they explore the practical side of starting and running a business and decide if self-employment is right for them. After the 4-day Entrepreneurship Course, those participants who wish to proceed, receive mentoring guidance for up to 12 months to develop, design and test their business idea and then to mature their business plan. Those who are ready to start their own business can present their business plan to the Business Launch Group, a team of business consultants that assesses the viability of their business plan. Finally, participants who reach that stage and start the business, may receive business mentoring for another 12 months to grow their business. Those participants who do not continue with the development of a business idea, may attend workshops aimed at developing their professional career and their integration into the workplace. The STARTAB Programme is the very first Enterprise Programme of Prince’s Trust International to run outside of the UK.
