On April 29, 2025, Efektas Group hosted an electrifying event at Kaunas Applied Arts School, unveiling the game-changing results of the FUTURE project to over 20 fired-up participants, including young dreamers, educators, and school staff. This wasn’t just another seminar—it was a launchpad for young entrepreneurs, especially NEETs (Not in Education, Employment, or Training), the unemployed, and those hungry to level up their skills in green tech, digital innovation, and startup hustle.
Why It Matters for Young Entrepreneurs
The event zeroed in on the skills that are shaping the future of business: green and digital expertise. In a world where sustainability and tech are driving markets, the FUTURE project is equipping the next generation with the tools to build businesses that don’t just make money but make a difference. Think eco-friendly startups, tech-driven solutions, and ventures that vibe with today’s hyper-connected, environmentally conscious world. What We Presented
- Erasmus+ Spotlight: The event kicked off with a rundown of the Erasmus+ Program and how the FUTURE project brought together powerhouse organizations from Portugal, Romania, Spain, Greece, and Lithuania to create something epic.
- FUTURE Project Breakdown: Participants got the inside scoop on the project’s biggest wins, including a slick Moodle-based online course (available in all partner languages) that’s like a masterclass for aspiring entrepreneurs. With 10 modules packed with e-books, audiobooks, presentations, and quizzes, it covers everything from digital marketing to sustainable business practices.
- Entrepreneurial Coaching Platform: A one-stop hub for mentorship and guidance to turn ideas into reality.
- Green & Digital Toolkit: A practical, step-by-step guide to crafting business plans that blend profitability with planet-friendly innovation. This is the kind of resource that can take your startup pitch from “meh” to “money in the bank.”
Why Young Entrepreneurs Should Care
The school staff couldn’t stop raving about how these tools fill a massive gap—business skills aren’t typically taught in classrooms, but they’re critical for success. Youth workers were hyped about the Toolkit’s ability to help young hustlers create actionable, green-focused business plans that align with what employers and investors are hunting for in 2025. The online course’s modular setup? Perfect for busy entrepreneurs who need to learn on their own schedule, whether they’re grinding at 2 a.m. or squeezing in a module between gigs.

Participants were buzzing about how accessible and flexible the resources are. One youth worker summed it up: “This is exactly what young people need to stand out in today’s job market and build businesses that matter.” The focus on green and digital entrepreneurship isn’t just trendy—it’s a roadmap to creating ventures that thrive in a world demanding sustainability and innovation.
