About the project

YAIE: Youth AI Entrepreneurship

The Youth AI Entrepreneurship project aims to equip European youth with AI skills and an entrepreneurial mindset, enabling them to succeed in the digital economy. By improving digital competence and encouraging innovation, YAIE supports young people in developing AI-driven solutions, addressing real-world challenges, and promoting social entrepreneurship.  

The project will deliver an online training course on AI and entrepreneurship, supported by a practical AI toolkit, a content creation hub, and best practice sheets to help young people apply AI in real business scenarios. Additionally, participants will also benefit from a dedicated mentorship guide and a testing phase with a portfolio to support participants’ growth. 

Focusing on three key areas, YAIE is fully aligned with the priorities of the Erasmus+ programme: 

  • Promoting active citizenship and youth entrepreneurship by encouraging initiative and equipping young people with training in AI and business development.
  • Driving digital transformation by strengthening digital skills through structured AI training. Participants will learn to create AI-based solutions, adapt to the evolving digital era, and gain a competitive edge in future employment.
  • Boosting employability by combining AI knowledge with entrepreneurial thinking. YAIE prepares future youth workers to stand out in the job market and lead innovation. As we enter a new digital era, this project offers young people the essential tools to succeed in an emerging digital economy.
