british council - Custom Software Development

BRITISH COUNCIL

the British Council is the UK’s international organisation
for cultural relations and educational opportunities.
They are on the ground in six continents and over 100 countries,
bringing international opportunity to life, every day.
THE JOURNEY
CHALLENGE WAS
  • to create a project that will connect together the entrepreneurial ecosystems in the countries from the Balkan region with focus on Macedonia, Serbia, Kosovo, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina
  • to perform proper research and map out all the key players in each of the abovementioned ecosystems
  • to create a report that will be presented globally
WHAT WE DID
  • we met with more than 100 entrepreneurs from the Balkan regions and identified enormous pool of information that later on we organized the information into local guides for each of the capital cities of the primary countries covered by this project
  • we created a visual identity for the project
  • we created a website, as a one-stop shop for all the resources, structured as a local city entrepreneurial guides
  • we drove a traffic to the website from the Balkan Region and presented the numbers to the official representatives of the British Council
  • we created a publication - an offline print - that is a sublimation of all the work, and all the valuable resources
    THE RESULTS
    • the publication was officially presented to the public and distributed to the local British Council locations in the Balkan Region
    • 5 different events to promote and encourage entrepreneurship on which the participants had a chance to visit London and learn from UK experts
    GSIX has helped us with developing a unique design of our Western Balkans Startup platform and promoting digital presence in all six countries in the region. We worked with them to create a wealth of resources and information, bringing our creative startup communities closer together and more connected to their UK partners. We continue to work with GSIX again this year, too.
