The Coaching Program
In the course of the coaching program, our assistant was offered extensive training modules from the Carinthian Economic Development Fund (KWF), numerous opportunities for networking with regional, national and international entrepreneurs at home and abroad.
Various business locations such as Slovenia or Germany were also visited by the assistants, and discussions were held with business delegates from different countries in order to ensure the best possible basis for further and subsequent offensives.
Finally completed with a freshly printed certificate!
