Through the implementation of six cycles of Startup Academy in Mostar, Tuzla, and Banja Luka, the project increased the capacity of women and young people to start and successfully run their own business. The Startup Academy is an innovative learning-by-doing model of developing a business idea into a company.

The project established instruments for the generation of new mobile and digital creative technologies in demand, aimed at new jobs among young people in Herzegovina, which will serve as catalysts for further growth of the traditional pillars of the Herzegovina economy such as tourism, agriculture, energy, and production.

The key issues that this project tried to address are unemployment among young people, a low level of cooperation and exchange of experiences in the entrepreneurship sector locally and regionally, as well as the need to develop certain specific skills among young people in order to increase their competitiveness on the labour market.
