Five students from Figueres have organised an event called 'De Figueres al món' (From Figueres to the World) to connect young talent with businesses in the Alt Empordà region. This initiative seeks to generate professional opportunities and help young people stay in the area.
Organisers said the goal is to create a space for young talent and local businesses to meet. The event focuses on fostering connections that could lead to employment and career development within the region, according to the students.
Connecting Talent and Industry
The students behind the project aim to address the challenge of retaining young professionals in Alt Empordà. By directly linking students and recent graduates with established companies, they hope to reduce the outflow of talent from the region.
The 'De Figueres al món' programme is designed to facilitate networking and direct interaction. It provides a platform for businesses to identify potential employees and for young people to explore local career paths, officials said. Further details on the event's schedule and participating companies are expected soon.
