Transnational training meeting organised in Zupthen the Netherlands.

GrowthFundMe project partners met for the first time “live” on 23-24 November 2023 in a transnational training meeting organised in Zutphen, the Netherlands. The event was
hosted by Inova Aspire.

The meeting was a great opportunity to make personal contacts and discuss the project results under development. The first modules developed so far, the methodology and
the training materials were presented, and the participants took part in a pilot testing training related to the development of entrepreneurial competencies for those who will use the platform and materials developed within the project in the future. These were presented based on the ENTRECOMP competency framework in the form of three modules identified by the partnership as most relevant to the project objectives:

  • Module 1 - The Entrepreneur
  • Module 2 - Ideas and Opportunities
  • Module 3 - Into Action

An important part of the meeting was the presentation of a working version of the GrowthFundMe platform dedicated to supporting social entrepreneurship practitioners and the
sharing of reflections by Partners on its content and design.

The next step was to discuss the additional content with which the platform will be enhanced. It was agreed to develop several important modules:

  • Odisee: module 1 (Social Entrepreneurship) and module 2 (Pitching and Storytelling)
  • Inova: module 3 (Entrepreneurship, resources and action orientation)
  • Growfunding: modules 4 and 5 (Crowdfunding)
  • ARTeria: module 6 (Audience development and stakeholder engagement)
  • BICC: Module 7 (Finance for community-driven initiatives)

Workshops that will take place in the project partnership countries have also been tentatively planned, as well as the opening of a channel on YT which will serve to disseminate
the objectives of the project.
