You don't have to fulfill your business dreams alone because the Social Impact Award project is there to support you every step of the way!
The Social Impact Award program in Serbia provides mentoring and financial support to young people in developing innovative solutions to the problems of the 21st century.
SIA is one of the largest international programs for the development of social entrepreneurship among young people, which, in addition to the knowledge, tools and techniques of social entrepreneurship, also gives them the confidence that they can be the initiator of positive change they want to see in the world. It is held in 14 countries on 3 continents, and in Serbia it has been implemented by the Razlivalište organization since 2014. This year, it is doing so with the support of Erste Bank, Vip mobile, Coca-Cola HBC Serbia, the US Embassy, SAP and the ERSTE Foundation.
