Digipreneur
Digital entrepreneurship skills for modern VET teachers, trainers and end users
About
Digitalisation is progressively creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs, especially for the generation of digital natives (Gen Z) which are characterised by their heavy use of technologies and social media, a multitasking and community orientation and an entrepreneurial spirit. However, some challenges persist while keeping up with the pace of technological disruptions.
The Digipreneur project aims to boost the digital entrepreneurship capacity in African and European countries. Its goal is to empower VET teachers so that they can support Gen Z learners in becoming digital entrepreneurs while developing their transversal competences and employability.
