The "Success in Your Own Business" project was completed in June 2018. In January of this year, the Voivodeship Employment Office in Łódź (Intermediary Unit) confirmed the project's full and correct settlement. The project involved training 80 participants in starting and running a business, awarding 65 grants for starting a business , and providing monthly financial support for running the business for 12 months. Eighty-three people were accepted into the project, 42 of whom were long-term unemployed and benefited from the support offered.
The projected number of grants awarded exceeded 67. Various businesses were established in Łódź and throughout the Łódź Voivodeship, including tailoring services, physiotherapy, landscaping, a children's soccer school, beauty salons, educational activities, car repair shops, carpentry services, dietary bar production, and a massage parlor.
As part of their monitoring visits, the project team visited all the entrepreneurs, allowing them to see the newly established companies and verify the correctness of the grant funds being spent. The plan was implemented!
The "Success in Your Own Business" project was co-financed by the European Social Fund under the Regional Operational Programme of the Lodz Voivodeship for 2014-2020. It is dedicated to people who are over 30 years of age, unemployed and in the most difficult situation on the labour market, i.e. people aged 50+, women, disabled people, long-term unemployed and low-skilled people.
