After many years of strong and successful cooperation, Coca-Cola HBC Kosovo and the Innovation Center Kosovo (ICK) have officially relaunched the well-known “Youth Empowerment 2025” program. With a renewed and more ambitious direction, the program returns with the goal of empowering young people in Kosovo with skills aligned with the demands of a rapidly changing world.

During 2025, the program aims to engage 800 young people from all major regions of Kosovo, while in-person trainings will be held throughout the year in Prishtina, Gjilan, and Gjakova. This initiative represents not only the continuation of a trusted partnership, but also a renewed vision to equip Kosovo’s youth with essential knowledge and access for the future labor market.

The first module of the program will begin on April 29 and will take place at the ICK premises in Prishtina.

The program has been carefully designed to include current topics that reflect global trends and local needs. Participants will explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact across various industries. They will also learn how to turn ideas into concrete business plans, while strengthening their skills in digital marketing, storytelling, and content creation.

“This relaunch is more than a continuation – it is a renewed promise to stand by Kosovo’s youth and move together toward a more innovative, inclusive, and sustainable future,” said Frosina Islami, Public Relations and Communications Manager at Coca-Cola HBC Kosovo. “Together with ICK, we are proud to bring this platform back with new energy and a future-oriented vision.”

Since its inception, the program has engaged more than 4,000 young people across Kosovo, many of whom have built successful careers or launched their own businesses.

“ICK is extremely pleased to once again join forces with Coca-Cola HBC Kosovo on one of the most impactful youth programs in the country,” said Shpend Lila, Project Manager at ICK. “This program reflects our shared belief in the talent and potential of Kosovo’s youth—and our mission to help them unlock that potential.”

The “Youth Empowerment 2025” program will continue throughout the year with dedicated training modules in selected municipalities. All interested young people are encouraged to follow the official channels of ICK and Coca-Cola HBC Kosovo for information on registration and upcoming training opportunities.
