The Programme

 

Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs is a cross-border exchange programme  which gives new or aspiring entrepreneurs the chance to learn from experienced entrepreneurs running small businesses in other Participating Countries.

The exchange of experience takes place during a stay with the experienced entrepreneur, which helps the new entrepreneur acquire the skills needed to run a small firm. The host benefits from fresh perspectives on his/her business and gets the opportunities to cooperate with foreign partners or learn about new markets.

 

 

Who can participate?

 

• New entrepreneurs, firmly planning to set up their own business or have already started one within the last three years
• Experienced entrepreneurs who own or manage a Small or Medium-Sized Enterprise in one of the Participating Countries

 

 

New and experienced entrepreneurs who are willing to take part in the entrepreneurs exchange programme should apply via a tool and choose Quoach as their preferred local contact point. Once you have been accepted, you will be able to find all other valid applications in the online catalogue, which enables you and your local contact point to search for suitable matches.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your coach

 

My name is Mariëtte van den Heuvel and I am your coach. Let me introduce myself:

 

During my whole working life the focus is and has been on the relation between people and their work.  For part of my working week I am a career counsellor at the Technical University of Eindhoven. In my job I meet a lot of, mostly, young people coming from all over the world with their questions about wanting a job, finding a job or keeping a job. It is very interesting to work with people who just started  their career.

 

With my company Quoach, I work since February 2019 as an intermediairy organisation for the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs Programme (EYE). Seeking for entrepreneurs and contributing to an exchange in which both starting entrepreneurs and experienced entrepreneurs  exchange their ideas, methods and dreams is a wonderful experience.

 

The name Quoach is a combination of questions and coach. I try to coach people towards their plans and aims. I help them when they have questions and try to find an answer. The colourfulness of the logo is chosen on purpose. Both in my job as a career counsellor and as an intermediate for EYE I work with people from all over the world. The mixture of cultures, habits and stories is very inspiring to me and it colours my life.
