5 of our Scholars have been accepted to BOLD Fellowship program 2023

We are thrilled to announce that our scholars, Lejla Ćehić, Faris Begić, Lejla Đapo, Dina Kurtalić, and Maida Filipović, have been chosen to participate in the BOLD Fellowship program in New York, where they will spend a month studying entrepreneurship!

Out of all the talented young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina, only 19 were chosen to take part in this intensive program, which will essentially take place at the University at Buffalo in New York.

This prestigious, BOLD Fellowship program is designed to create meaningful opportunities for networking and mentorship with leading experts in the US and successful diaspora, and to provide insights and tools for developing their own business ideas in the form of a business model, pitch, and implementation plan for Bosnia and Herzegovina. All while helping young leaders and entrepreneurs develop their skills and knowledge in entrepreneurship.

It’s structured to provide an immersive experience through a combination of in-person activities in New York State and virtual sessions.

“I am excited to grow my network and meet great individuals from a variety of backgrounds. Moreover, I am thrilled to gain extensive knowledge and insights about leadership, business, and innovative strategies that will shape a brighter future,” said Dina Kurtalić

We are excited to see what these talented individuals will achieve through the program and how they will use their new skills to positively impact their communities. Special congratulations to our scholars who without a doubt make us proud with each step:
