Pohjan Akka – development of female and family entrepreneurship in the Republic of Karelia and Kainuu through cooperation with Russia (Interreg)

Closed

The goal of the joint project was to improve the opportunities for female and family entrepreneurs in the Republic of Karelia and Eastern Finland to utilise their location on the border region and to increase their capacity to operate with their affiliates on both sides of the border. The main activities of the project were to be training for entrepreneurs, officials and immigrants responsible for business activities; company-specific coaching; educational and contact-making trips to nearby regions; creation of cooperation networks; and active communication on both sides of the border. A publication was to be assembled from the most significant content of the project’s training period.
