The project officially kick-started with the first online transnational meeting held in Bruxelles, during which partners had a great opportunity to discuss the overall project implementation schedule, define timelines and respective duties in the following months. One of the very first activities was the development, testing and implementation of the Open Educational Resources (OER) Platform. 

Stаrt-Cup Аcаdemy Platform is the main showcase of project’s results and its largest and most tangible channel for international visibility, and is available in 7 languages (EN, ES, IT, LV, BG, HR, UA) with all of its content completely available for free, without requiring any kind of registration/identification by the user. Stаrt-Cup Аcаdemy website is now available at https://www.startcupacademy.eu/. 

For the next two years, the Platform will host and integrate all the main achievements of the consortium; each section of the Stаrt-Cup Аcаdemy Platform is a stand-alone library of its corresponding output.
