Project contact details

The project “From Immigrant to Entrepreneur in South Ostrobothnia” is co-funded by the European Union. The project responds to an identified need to promote entrepreneurship among people with an immigrant background and to strengthen their participation in the local business environment.

The aim of the project is to address these challenges by piloting a new service model – a support person service for immigrants, which supports the entrepreneurial journey from the initial idea all the way to the end of the company’s first year of operation.

Project duration: 1 March 2026 – 28 February 2029
