In order to empower Europe\u2019s future workforce, SAP and JA Europe announce a new partnership aimed at inspiring more than 9000 students aged 15-24 years in 8 countries across Europe.<\/p>\n

The two organisations share a joint vision for a future where all young people have the skillset and mindset to build thriving communities, and a belief that STEM and entrepreneurship skills play a key role in making the next generation work-ready for the global economy.<\/p>\n

Innovative hands-on learning experiences will combine SAP’s technological expertise and JA Europe’s experience in youth entrepreneurship and education in order for students to gain practical skills and explore entrepreneurship as a viable career path.<\/p>\n

Salvatore Nigro, CEO JA Europe, commented: \u201cIt is urgent not only to educate Europe\u2019s youth, but to ensure their integration to the world of work once they graduate. Through this collaboration with SAP, we aim to open the career opportunities as wide as possible by fostering entrepreneurship, financial literacy and STEM skills of students to make them work-ready. As the work readiness requires a broad skillset, we are convinced that the learning experiences we design with SAP will equip Europe\u2019s youth with the right skills to embrace the opportunities of the digital and green economies while ensuring a positive societal impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

Diana Filip, Deputy CEO and Chief Development Officer of JA Europe added: \u201cWe are thrilled to embark on this new journey alongside SAP, as we join forces to empower Europe’s youth. The true strength of partnerships lies in shared values and a unified vision, and together, we are embarking on a project that holds immense potential in fostering work readiness among young Europeans for a brighter future.”<\/p>\n

Together, we expect to reach a total of 9,377 young Europeans in the current 2023-2024 school year, with the support of 259 SAP volunteers accompanying the learning journey.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt SAP, we believe that today’s environmental and social challenges are profoundly interconnected and must be viewed holistically,\u201d said Claire Gillissen-Duval, CSR Senior Director EMEA & MEE at SAP.<\/p>\n

\u201cJA Europe is the leading organisation and part of JA Worldwide\u2019s global network delivering hands-on, experiential learning in entrepreneurship, work readiness and financial health for the youth. JA\u2019s series of events serve as a catalyst for change, providing a platform to empower young entrepreneurs to overcome adversity – which drive long-term impact and create equitable access to economic opportunity, education & employment.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Together with Junior Achievement, our future is certainly in the right hands\u201d concluded Gillissen.<\/p>\n
