Lipstick & Money

The unemployment rates are continuously increasing and certain groups (unskilled people) are especially affected by unemployment.Whilst Europe does not have enough entrepreneurs following through on their ideas to set up in business, there are, disproportionately, even fewer women than men entrepreneurs.Targeted and attractive education and training are some of the most effective ways to solve this challenge. The existing education and training offer for entrepreneurs today is mainly focused on the ”hard-core” items as finance, marketing, sales, but ignores other factors which have influence on the women’s choice of an entrepreneur career (e.g. motivation, life planning/goal setting, etc.).This is why there is a real need for new initiatives which meet the potential female entrepreneurs’ characteristics and needs and help them overcome the barriers which may hinder them in starting their own business. Combining a unique & interactive approach, the project offers:A personal development and entrepreneurship course to help you learn the basicsFun group sessions – making a product to sell, e.g. jewelry, textiles, craftsTraining and support to help you start your own businessAn exciting opportunity to meet and hear from other women who have started a businessThe opportunity to work as a team and run your own business eventA change to enlarge your network and share experiences
