The success we have had in recent years in the country, shows us how great is the need of young Romanians to acquire digital skills and to benefit from employment assistance. Our goal is to carry out this program every year for more and more cities in Romania and to offer the labor market young competent professionals, who will find the right place in local companies or who will develop as entrepreneurs. That is why we are pleased to have partners like OMV Petrom, companies that understand the need to help and stimulate young people to stay in the country or in the cities where they were born to contribute to the growth of the local economy,” said Paul Apostol, Founder of Digital Nation.
