Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs
< Return to
Partnerships
Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs (EYE) is an
exchange programme for entrepreneurs, financed by the European
Union. It offers individuals who are thinking of, or in the early
stages of setting up a business the opportunity to work alongside
an experienced entrepreneur in another European country and
strengthen the skills they need to develop their business. EYE also
offers business owners and directors in the UK the opportunity to
host visiting entrepreneurs from elsewhere in Europe at their
company base. Exchanges can last from one to six months. For more
information about EYE go to http://www.erasmus-entrepreneurs.eu/
Rinova is a UK Intermediary Organisation for
Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs, through which we connect with a
network of over 170 organisations and with over 17,000 registered
entrepreneurs across Europe. As part of the Mobilitas partnership,
one of the highest performing partnerships in the EYE network,
Rinova has facilitated over 50 successful exchanges in the last
three years. Through EYE we support new entrepreneurs through all
stages of the process of registering, finding a match and
undertaking the stay abroad. Equally, we support host entrepreneurs
in the UK to find appropriate matches and collaborate with visiting
new entrepreneurs from other countries.
Rinova can also draw upon the AMICO Mobility
Welcome Service and its database of organisations and
companies for those from the field of creative media
seeking exchanges with entrepreneurs in EU
countries. For further information please contact t.burgess@rinova.co.uk
