The ACT4EU Creative Mentorship Platform is now live
Connecting creative entrepreneurs with experienced professionals to exchange knowledge, develop ideas and build stronger creative ventures across Europe.
Good ideas need the right support
A creative career is not built on talent alone. Whether someone is developing a first project, finding clients, defining a business model or expanding an established initiative, access to experienced professionals can make a meaningful difference.
That is why the A.C.T.4EU: Advocacy, Creativity and Transformation for Europe partnership has launched its Creative Mentorship Platform, a dedicated online space for emerging creative entrepreneurs and professionals willing to share practical knowledge, experience and perspectives.
The launch is a milestone in ACT4EU's work to strengthen creative entrepreneurship, expand professional networks and make tailored support more accessible across Europe's creative and cultural sectors.
One community, two ways to participate
The platform brings together people looking for guidance and those ready to share their expertise.

Part of a wider commitment to creative entrepreneurship
The Creative Mentorship Platform is an important outcome of A.C.T.4EU: Advocacy, Creativity and Transformation for Europe, an Erasmus+ cooperation partnership bringing together RESOPA (France), GEYC (Romania), EuroMuévete (Spain) and Social Hackers Academy (Greece).
Coordinated by Social Hackers Academy, the platform complements the project's research, advocacy training, entrepreneurial development activities and cross-sector collaboration. Together, these activities seek to strengthen skills, professional networks and opportunities for creative entrepreneurs.
For GEYC, the launch creates an additional pathway for continued learning and collaboration beyond the project's training and entrepreneurship activities.
