The project “BYTE” aims to help refugees and migrants enter into the labor market, become self-employed, acquire the necessary skills to constitute mentors to new migrants and create in the long term the basis to improve their living conditions in the hosting country.

The project “BYTE” is based on three concepts:

a) the concept of innovative new technologies such as blockchain and artificial intelligence (Fourth Industrial Revolution),

b) the idea that entrepreneurs can be mentors for new migrants,

c) the need for migrants to be appropriately trained to comply with the requirements of the new technologies.
