In the coming years, the project will encourage innovation partnerships between the private sector, public sector and educational institutions; STEM education will also be supported, by adapting and implementing educational programs for training and expanding skills, so that IT becomes more attractive for everyone, regardless of age or gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supporting the development of entrepreneurship is also among the project&#8217;s priorities. Thus, several actions will be taken to facilitate the creation of local startups, strengthen their development capacity, and prepare for investment. Over the next 4 years, it is expected to provide assistance and support for at least 20 local startups, support over 15 non-IT initiatives, and over 2,600 people will benefit from entrepreneurship education programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project also envisages the creation of EU4Innovation Centre &#8211; a centre that will develop more local services, programs and activities.
