Over a period of 10 weeks, a group of 3 to 4 students, with a starting capital of €50, tries to make it grow through a purchase-sale activity of small products, a service offered or a production activity. The aim is to teach them the first steps of business management.
Each group details the activities carried out, such as the purchase of raw materials, the sale of products, the management of the cash book, marketing actions, etc. Pupils have to take initiatives and decisions. A teacher supervises and advises the group.
The aim of this programme is to enable young people to learn to work in groups, to manage a project, to be in contact with suppliers and consumers and to prepare them for other, more advanced programmes.
Time Period: October – June
This programme can be seen as a stepping stone to the Mini-Companies, Practice Enterprises, Junior Project Awards and Innovation Camp programmes. The programme is also a complement to the You(th)Start Challenges.
The registration opens in September 2025.
