We remind you that on May 21, the 1+1 media group of companies presented the social project "People of Ideas+. #forgetage". The goal of the campaign is to destroy stereotypes that people of a respectable age are not capable of starting their own business, mastering new skills and generating powerful ideas. In addition to the internship program, the project publishes a cycle of motivational stories and photo reports, realized in collaboration with the famous Kyiv photographer Victoria Kvitka. He introduces Ukrainians to real People of Ideas+, who have a powerful history and prove by their own example that age is not an obstacle on the way to achieving goals, and the year of birth does not play any role in the process of achieving success. 17 stories have already been published on the campaign website , including interviews with People's Artists of Ukraine Volodymyr Horyanskyi, Ostap Stupka, Alla Kudlai, Anatoly Hnatyuk, musician and leader of the VV band Oleg Skrypka, actress and model Natalie Kara, Consul General of Ukraine in Frankfurt - Maini Alla Poleva, singer Volodymyr Dorosh, creative producer of 1+1 Anatoly Yerema, special correspondent of "TSN. Week" by Kostyantyn Hrubych and others.

In August, the internship program # zabutyprovik was launched, within which 14 interns in 8 different areas learn new professions and join the corporate life of the company.

The prerequisite for launching the project was a survey conducted by the research agency Info Sapiens on behalf of the media holding. His results testify to the existence of an established stereotype that the flowering of creative thinking occurs before the age of 40. Almost two-thirds of respondents believe that there is such an age when it is too late to change professions, master a new specialty or start a new project or business, on average it is 50-56 years old. The most conservative was the older audience - almost 70% of respondents over the age of 50 believe that after a certain age it is too late to start new projects (in the broadest sense).
