Young entrepreneurs from Israel and Jordan will be matched with Green Bay-area business mentors and University faculty thanks to a U.S. Department of State grant to be administered by UW-Green Bay.
The $273, 876 grant from the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs will fund two years of the “Young Entrepreneurs” training project for up to 20 young business people who will travel from the Mideast beginning next spring for workshops, site visits, job shadowing and cultural activities in the Green Bay area. Mentors also would be available for potential follow-up training and consulting in the visitors’ home countries.
A long-term goal is to create mutually beneficial, self-sustaining linkages among professional communities in the United States, Israel and Jordan.
