KTC is involved in Acquiring background information of demographic structure in Baltic Sea Region Countries (BSR) (Activity 3.1), Study of the employment situation of Best Agers (Activity 3.2), Analysis of support structures for Best Agers employment (Activity 3.3), Developing a curriculum for training executives to utilize their Best Agers emplyees (Activity 3.5).
- WP4 „Coaches & Experts for Businesses“. KTC is involved in Surveying of on-going Best Agers initiatives in Lithuania (Activity 4.1) and Identifying target groups and preparing pilot initiatives (Activity 4.2).
Why we participate in Best Agers
The demographic trends and market change from planning economy to market economy have led the entrepreneurship to a situation where Best Agers with a lot of experience are willing to retire from one side and young people with a lot of new and inovative ideas are willing to start their own business from the other side. And it creates a gap between generations. From our point of view and interest, The Best Agers project addresses those issues on how to remove the gap and transfer the knowledge and experience from older generation to young people. Finding new and innovative ways to promote and support entrepreneurship is the main goal of KTC in the project.
