Real entrepreneurship: from zero to first deal in ten steps

Ustvarjalnik is a Slovenian educational organization that exports its curricula to most countries. Our methodology for young entrepreneurs has received many accolades: it was selected among the twelve most promising social benefit initiatives in the world by the Unreasonable Institute, received recognition for the most socially beneficial idea in the CEE region and special recognition by the President of the Republic of Slovenia. Today, it is performed on three continents.

Our approach...

Create a business project from your hobby

Create a business project from your hobby

We guide young people through the steps so that they can create a business idea from their hobby into their first product.
Individual mentoring until the first major success

Individual mentoring until the first major success

Our program concludes with the first slightly bigger win on the participant project and is assisted by mentors until then.

We treat every project as a real business, so we help to reach out to all key stakeholders

The basic difference between our program and everyone else is that we actually push young people into the unknown and help them get the real product they are trying to sell to real customers for real money.

We believe that this is the only way for someone to learn business in its entirety.

Ustvarjalnik offers the curriculum as a service: The client is provided with teacher training, an appropriate methodology and a mentoring manual, all the necessary materials as well as training for the contractors and support in the implementation of the project. Each curriculum is tailor-made for the client.
