Tech Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Education fellowship u SAD-u

Organizacija WordChicago iz Čikagom uz podršku US State Departmenta pruža izvrsnu priliku mladih tech profesionalcima iz Slovenije, Hrvatske i BiH za učešće u petonedeljnom fellowship progragu u Čikagu i Vašingtonu.

Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, the Professional Fellows Program (PFP) brings emerging tech innovation, entrepreneurship, and education leaders from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, and Slovenia to Chicago for short-term fellowships with leading tech-related companies in a variety of fields, government agencies and NGOs that promote innovation and entrepreneurship, and university and non-university technology incubators.

The overall goal of the program is for the PFP Fellows to gain insight into best practices in tech innovation, entrepreneurship, and education and how an effective urban tech innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem operates. PFP Fellows are competitively-selected tech leaders 25–40 years old, fluent in English.

WorldChicago has hosted 19 total fellows in Chicago in May and October of 2015 for four-week fellowships. Organizations that host PFP Fellows are eligible to nominate someone from their office to participate in a U.S. State Department-sponsored reciprocal exchange to Fellows’ countries.

All Fellows stay with Chicago-area homestay hosts during the program.
