About the project

  • Business Skills for a Better Life brought together 33 young people and youth workers from 6 countries to explore the power of entrepreneurship, leadership, and creative thinking.

    📍 For 8 days, Vyhlídka Blansko became a space for building business ideas, practicing public speaking, diving into AI tools, discussing sustainability, and – most importantly – shifting perspectives.

    🔥 From Ikigai workshops to a full 24h business hackathon and our own version of Shark Tank, every participant walked away with new skills, confidence, and purpose.
