The START CUP ACADEMY project successfully carried out its second piloting session on 19 May 2026 at the Youth Center of Alhaurín, in collaboration with the associated partner ARRABAL-AID. The session gathered 13 participants, including young people, job seekers, aspiring entrepreneurs, and individuals interested in strengthening their entrepreneurial and startup-related competences.
The piloting activity was organized by Internet Web Solutions (IWS) as part of the project’s testing and validation phase. The session provided participants with the opportunity to explore the START CUP ACADEMY training contents and digital tools while offering direct feedback on usability, relevance, and applicability.
The experience proved to be extremely fruitful and inspiring. Participants actively engaged with the materials and discussions, contributing valuable insights that will support the final refinement of the project’s training resources and digital warehouse. In addition, the event allowed the consortium to expand the START CUP network by connecting with new potential stakeholders, collaborators, and future beneficiaries interested in entrepreneurship support and startup ecosystems.
