LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Following the success of 2019/2022 pilot program, the Macedonia2025 program, Support Fund for Talented High School Students “Talents Today – Leaders Tomorrow,” provides financial means to help talented youth from the country to advance their full potential. Each year, Macedonia 2025 and its partners award scholarships to 10 individuals in the total annual amount of 60,000 MKD per person. These scholarships provide the selected ten students with the opportunity for continuous talent and skills development through additional training and participation in international competitions. Moreover, Macedonia2025 offers a possibility for mentoring and internships in prominent companies to the program participants.

The scholarships are provided with the support of our two membership bodies – Ambassadors Club and Advisory Board, as well as through donations and cooperation with corporate and individual partners.

The aim of the program is to actively and continuously support talented young people in the country to realize their full personal and professional potential.
