How can we create opportunities for young entrepreneurs and help turn good ideas into sustainable businesses? As part of the EU Support – Local Change series, Europe House Tetovo brought a group of secondary school students to 700 Accelerator Hub at South East European University (SEEU) in Tetovo, giving them an opportunity to explore the world of startups.
Launched in December 2024 at SEEU TechPark, 700 Accelerator Hub was established with support from the European Union through the “EU for Economic Growth – EU4EG” project, co-funded by the EU and the Government of Germany. It provides a space for startups, entrepreneurship and innovation in the Polog region, connecting local talent with expertise, mentoring and business networks.
The Hub focuses on supporting young people and women in entrepreneurship, as well as early-stage startups, particularly those developing technological, digital and green solutions. Its programme offers 12 weeks of training, mentoring and networking opportunities, while startups may also be eligible for co-investment.
More than just a workspace, 700 Accelerator Hub provides an environment where ideas are shared and developed, collaboration is encouraged, and innovative solutions receive the support they need to grow into sustainable businesses.
Through the EU Support – Local Change series, Europe House Tetovo is exploring successful local initiatives with young people from the region, highlighting the tangible results of European support for sustainable economic growth.
