The idea for the DigEnYou project came from our observation that the group showed a high interest in digital entrepreneurship. We want to create a project to provide young people with the necessary tools to realise their dreams. With this project, our aim is to increase digital entrepreneurship among young people by offering specialised online trainings aimed at developing digital and entrepreneurial skills.

As a youth organisation, Mozaik is always trying to develop methods that support young people in the field of digital entrepreneurship. Digital entrepreneurship is developing significantly all over the world, especially in Europe since the Covid-19 pandemic. Many EU countries are still struggling with high unemployment rates among young people, but this target group is keen to start their own business through entrepreneurship.

The changing conditions in the world of work and the rapid diffusion of information technologies, together with the change of the younger generations, have created new requirements for youth education. Digital skills are required for almost every job and in the near future 90 per cent of jobs will demand some level of digital competences. Today, young people are eagerly waiting to start their own business, especially in the digital sector.

According to the European Digital Economy and Society Index, the EU needs to significantly improve its digital skills to catch up with the most digitalised countries worldwide.

Young people The main target group of our project is young people. This group aims to develop digital skills that will help them to start their own business in the digital sector. All project outputs will directly benefit this target group. As a partnership we are in constant contact with this group, so we know their needs and how to work with them.
