M-UP program: Support for migrant entrepreneurs on their path to success
Since 2017, the M-UP program has been supporting migrant entrepreneurs to realize their business ideas and become successful. Founded by Youth Business International (YBI) with the help of the European Union's COSME program, the network brings together key players to share knowledge, develop innovative solutions and accompany migrants at all stages of their entrepreneurial journey.
The M-UP network comprises more than 20 expert organizations from across Europe that specialize in helping migrant entrepreneurs transform their micro-enterprises into thriving small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The program is characterized by a bottom-up approach: M-UP focuses on entrepreneurs at all stages of their business development, from already successful SME owners to aspiring entrepreneurs and talented founders with promising business ideas.
By sharing experiences and best practices as well as co-creating innovative solutions, M-UP identifies the biggest challenges faced by migrant entrepreneurs. The insights gained feed directly into the development of scalable solutions that can be implemented on a transnational level.
In addition, M-UP advocates for policy changes to improve the framework conditions for migrant entrepreneurs. The aim is to break down barriers and support migrants to realize their full entrepreneurial potential. In this way, M-UP contributes to strengthening communities and revitalizing economies in Europe.
