PRESENTATION OF THE EXCHANGE
NE: description of activities, objectives reached, and outputs
As a recently completed Erasmus Young Entrepreneur, I am proud to have collaborated with AdelSlovakia and its CEO, Lenka Curillova, in establishing an NGO aimed at promoting various projects under Erasmus+, national events, sports, activities, and social inclusion. With a strong foundation in natural history and heritage conservation, I successfully contributed my expertise to our diverse mission. Under Lenka's guidance, we developed and coordinated impactful projects fostering cross-cultural exchanges, youth engagement, and social inclusion across national and European levels. I dedicated my skills and resources to ensuring the success and sustainability of our initiatives, and I am confident that our partnership has made meaningful contributions to European cooperation and youth empowerment.
QUOTES
As a fellow New Entrepreneur, I want to share some thoughts from my journey in the hope it encourages you as you step into the world of entrepreneurship. This path is full of excitement, challenges, and constant learning—embrace every moment. One of the most important things I’ve learned is that every challenge is an opportunity for growth. Things may not always go as planned, but each setback is a valuable lesson that can lead you to new solutions and ideas. It’s essential to stay curious and open-minded. As entrepreneurs, we are always learning—about our industries, customers, and ourselves. Your original idea might shift or evolve as you gain experience, and that’s perfectly normal. Flexibility and the willingness to adapt are key to success. In my experience, collaboration is invaluable. Seek out mentorship and partnerships with people who share your vision or challenge you constructively. Surrounding yourself with supportive individuals can accelerate your progress and open up unexpected opportunities. Motivation can be difficult when things get tough. There will be moments of doubt, but your passion will keep you going. Passion is what will drive you forward when the journey feels overwhelming, and it will inspire others to believe in your vision. Remember, success is rarely a straight line. It’s a series of ups and downs, but with determination and resilience, you will get there. Finally, enjoy the process. Celebrate every win, no matter how small, and learn from your challenges. Every step forward builds a foundation for your future success. Stay determined, stay curious, and trust in your ability to turn your vision into reality. Wishing you the best on your entrepreneurial journey!
