About
A free path for young founders
RISE Founder Path brings seven learning modules together as one path. Learners aged 18 to 30 work on their own idea as they learn, and finish with a Venture Dossier and a free certificate.
What young founders told us
From the RISE focus groups and interviews in Türkiye, France and Malta.
The barriers are structural
Young founders in Türkiye, France and Malta meet funding gaps, heavy paperwork and a lack of mentors. These are gaps in the ecosystem, not personal shortcomings.
They want a journey, not theory
Focus groups asked for step-by-step programmes that guide them from idea validation to a first customer, with practical exercises.
Using tools is not using them to build
Young people use digital tools every day, but many lack the strategic skills to apply them to a business.
