The 4th edition of the StartUP Voucher is now open and aims to give new momentum to youth entrepreneurship in Portugal. Promoted by IAPMEI, this program is designed to support young graduates up to the age of 29 in creating their own jobs, with a focus on technology-based business ideas.
The StartUP Voucher offers a comprehensive package of support to help turn ideas into viable business projects, combining training, mentorship, and financial support. The goal is clear: to promote digital transformation, innovation, and the creation of qualified jobs, contributing to a more competitive, modern, and sustainable economy.
Part of the Thematic Programme for Innovation and Digital Transition, and aligned with European Union initiatives, the program acknowledges the importance of investing not only in technology but also in human capital development. By encouraging new, innovative business models, it prepares young entrepreneurs for the challenges of an ever-changing job market.
Open and inclusive, the program is aligned with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, fostering value creation with real impact on society and the environment.
If you have a tech-based business idea and want to be part of the next generation of entrepreneurs in Guimarães, the StartUP Voucher could be the first step towards transforming your future.
Set.Up Guimarães is ready to support young people in the region who are interested in applying for this opportunity and developing their projects within a dynamic ecosystem of innovation and collaboration.
