Open Future – space for developing potential and innovative thinking.
We create after-school centres where we offer a 3-year educational programme focused on entrepreneurship, digital and soft skills to the middle-school students.
We create opportunities for program participants to develop their skills and talents. We encourage them to notice their surroundings, think about the world differently, solve the problems they see around them and not be afraid to actively approach these situations. We want children to know that there are different options they can take advantage of in their lives, regardless of the environment they come from.

Out-of-school support
We create a safe and creative environment – an after-school centre equipped with digital technologies and a relaxation zone.
Learning differently
We regularly offer children learning in an informal way with an emphasis on personal growth or the transition to secondary school. Coordinators accompany them in their education.
Solutions for the region
We guide our participants to create their own idea that would solve a problem in their region. Children create their own mini social innovation.
A world of possibilities
We involve people from the business, non-profit and public sector, such as experienced professionals to expand children’s awareness of the possibilities in their communities or future employment.
