CAN YOU GET THIS?
YOUR REAL ODDS
Over 28,500 new entrepreneur applications have been submitted across the programme's history, with roughly 15,450 exchanges completed.
Completion rate from application to exchange is under 55%, so not every applicant lands a match. Matching depends on finding a compatible host entrepreneur, which can take time.
WHAT IT TAKES
Find your local contact point on the EYE website and submit an application — 1-3 hours
Get matched with a host entrepreneur in another participating country — Weeks to months, varies
Complete the cross-border stay with your host business — 1-6 months
WORTH KNOWING
There are no fees to participate — the programme covers financial support for the stay. The value is practical, hands-on learning inside a real business abroad, not a cash grant.
