We have the idea and hope to start a Pilot Plan in Santa Coloma de Farners, which will be called FARNERS VIVA, to see if it has a positive effect and can be replicated in other regional capitals of Girona and Osona. Farners Bellvehí Massaguer will collaborate in this project. The project will basically consist of:
- Detect young people of working age who have finished their studies (or are in their last year) and who are willing and ready to put effort and dedication into business projects in Santa Coloma de Farners; managing to generate jobs for young people in the village and, at the same time, improve the business activity of the Municipality.
- The idea is to carry out a task of detection and selection of those young people who are considered suitable for the project and guide them, train them and help them to carry out projects, providing the initial GIXGI funding and participating in the project as a financial and strategic partner; but with the idea that in the future, if the project is successful, the young people who are taking it forward will acquire the capital under very favorable conditions and the business will end up being 100% theirs.
- The analysis and detection of projects in which to invest will also be done with the needs of the municipality in mind and we will try to make them projects with a soul that have a positive impact on the Municipality and its people.
- In the projects, we will try to encourage other entrepreneurs and investors in the Municipality, to be able to cover more and better and to make the projects more sustainable.
