The call for applications for the second cohort of the REDpreneur Women programme has now closed

More than 2,000 applications were submitted from across Ukraine, demonstrating the strong interest of women in business development and in implementing innovative, socially oriented initiatives.

This high level of interest confirms the continued relevance of programmes supporting women in entrepreneurship and highlights the need to create sustainable opportunities for developing and scaling their own ideas and projects.

REDpreneur Women is implemented by the Ukrainian Red Cross in partnership with the Austrian Red Cross, with the support of the Neighbour in Need Foundation (Austria) and the Austrian Development Agency. The training and mentoring components of the programme are delivered in partnership with the Ukrainian Future Business Incubator.

The second cohort of the programme is designed to support women with business ideas who require additional knowledge, practical tools, and professional guidance for further growth. As part of the programme, participants will gain access to training, mentoring support, practical workshops, and networking opportunities.

Upon completion of the programme, the strongest business ideas will be eligible to receive grant funding of up to EUR 7,000 to launch or scale their businesses.

REDpreneur Women is more than just a programme. It is a community of women who, through entrepreneurship and innovation, are strengthening Ukraine’s economic resilience.
