Objective of the Project |
Just as rural development is a process, so too is the cooperation between the two institutions through which together they increased their competence to support vocational changes and innovative entrepreneurship skills in their respective rural regions. previous collaboration generated student feedback which suggests that there is a demand for further support in the form of a network. Existing networks of rural entrepreneurs have focused only on specific regions or on existing businesses. Therefore, this project focused on non-existent or early-stage start-up businesses and has a national scope, as identified by existing participants in the sector. Therefore, the two institutions worked together to understand and create the necessary infrastructure and informational needs of rural entrepreneurs. This served both the institutions themselves, and the rural communities which need that support. |
