Subsidized AI Tools for Young Balkan Entrepreneurs

AI tooling shouldn't be a luxury. We're covering the cost of premium AI development tools so young innovators across the Balkans can build without barriers.

GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT Pro, Claude Pro, Cursor Pro, Windsurf, v0 and more — fully subsidized by C9 Group.

Why We're Doing This

The Balkans are brimming with untapped tech talent, but the cost of modern AI tooling creates an uneven playing field. A single AI subscription can cost more than a week's wages for a young developer in the region. Spots are limited — applicants are selected based on project quality, innovation potential, and demonstrated commitment.

  • GitHub Copilot Pro – AI pair programming
  • Cursor Pro – AI-first code editor
  • Windsurf Pro – AI coding workflows

  • Claude Pro – Anthropic's AI assistant
