Ten aspiring entrepreneurs will join a year long incubation program that includes training, coaching, technical consulting and mentoring!

Earlier in June we welcomed the participants of the 1st Incubation Round for Alba's joint program with Odyssea. A group of 10 aspiring entrepreneurs from vulnerable and excluded groups of people in Greece will receive training and hands on support to develop and implement their entrepreneurial ideas.

On June 7 the AHEAD - Alba Hub for Entrepreneurship and Development team held the first online session, part of the program's 16 hour intensive training. On June 18 the group participated in the first seminar that focused on role models. Two guest speakers, Christina Chrisoula from Taxidi Olive Farm and Albina Batrinu from Smaragda's Art, shared their entrepreneurial journey.

Once the intensive training concludes, the participants will be matched to their coaches and start working on their business ideas on an individual basis. Their incubation will be enriched with seminars and mentoring, while they will also receive technical support from lawyers, accountants and other idea related experts.

Join us in welcoming Giorgos, Omid, Dimitris, Ige, Nour, Rafael, Albina, Elif, Yahyaa, Kakou and Christina to the program and the Alba family!

The incubation program is supported by US philanthropic organisation NextFab Foundation, and coordinated and delivered by Odyssea and Alba.
