The project was developed with the aim of inserting young people and adolescents into the labour market and promoting interaction with their communities as well as improving their living conditions. It is meant to help them build new perspectives for the future and establish themselves in the territory through science, technology, and sustainable innovations.

The new social relations and world of work that we in demands transformations in the educational environment. In other words, educational environments are required to contribute to the formation of individuals with the capacity to respond and generate solutions to the problems that society faces and be the main actors responsible for promoting solutions for their communities' development. A strategic way of achieving sustainable territorial development is for citizens to feel that they are an integral part of their communities and thus have a great interest in transforming them. The project's actions address the entire family of the students, since every student trained in the young entrepreneurship mentor methodology is a potential 'multiplier' within their families, supporting them to think about transformative solutions that address local problems. The students' families are involved in the process of identifying the problem, ideating the solution, and developing market research. At the end of the project, a business expo is held. In this final activity, family members are invited to participate and students present their projects to a panel of local investors and entrepreneurs. The project has been taking place since 2018 on the Registro campus in São Paulo's Vale do Ribeira, the region with the most preserved Atlantic Forest continuum in the state. Vale do Ribeira, as a region, currently has the lowest economic development index but possesses significant potential for growth, especially in attracting young talent. In 2020, the project was adapted for virtual networks and extended to students from the Federal Institute of Minas Gerais (Câmpus Ponte Nova) and the Federal Institute of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Câmpus Bom Jesus do Itabapoana). Furthermore, it obtained support from the Ministry of Education through the IF's More Entrepreneurship Program.

The young entrepreneurship mentoring project enables transformation, diversity, and inclusion by breaking down barriers and making connections between students and their community. It is divided into three phases: Inspiration, Hands-on, and Entrepreneurial Convergence. The project empowers students to develop solutions for their community through science, technology and innovation. The main objective is to spread the culture of innovative and impact entrepreneurship through innovative and inclusive methodologies in the entrepreneurial process with the help of mentoring teams formed by young teenagers from the IFSP integrated high school. The mentors support the process of disseminating the teaching of business modeling tools for the development of innovative business projects through digital platforms and face-to-face workshops for teenagers and high school students. The goal is to implement a strategy to multiply the culture of innovative entrepreneurship among peers. All planned actions are based on the vision of multiplying active entrepreneurial and innovation methodologies through peer mentoring. That is, the formation of a team of young entrepreneurship mentors who offer mentoring to other young students and teenagers in the development of entrepreneurial projects, attracting them to the business and technological world, promoting exchanges and mutual enrichment among peers.

Its objective is to inspire young people to believe that the socio-environmental challenges in their regions are opportunities to develop innovative and impactful solutions that genuinely contribute to inclusion and diversity. In addition to multiplying the learning of entrepreneurship and innovation, peer mentoring especially among teenage girls creates a sorority network based on empathy and fellowship in pursuit of achieving common goals with a focus on entrepreneurship and innovation. Each trained teenager is a 'multiplier' and has the real opportunity to lead new stories as an entrepreneur in their community.
