Santander Explorer Competition - Uruguay - 2022

Banco Santander, together with its Santander International Entrepreneurship Center (CISE), is launching the 15th edition of the Explorer program with the aim of fostering youth entrepreneurship and supporting the transformation of ideas into projects and solutions. This year, the program is expanding to eight countries, with the addition of the United Kingdom and Uruguay.

The Explorer program has 12 weeks and is designed for young people aged 18 to 31.

It allows participants to connect with an international community. There, they will receive online training using the “learning by doing” approach and mentoring from experts.

They will be able to validate their business idea and develop the skills needed to turn it into a viable and sustainable solution.

The registration deadline is August 11, and applications can be submitted on the contest website
