Education and young people

Every young person has the capacity to make their mark by harnessing enterprising ideas, skills and talents.

Global Entrepreneurship Week (formally Enterprise Week) is a chance to celebrate enterprise across your school, college or university and showcase all the amazing activity you do all year round. It’s also a great time to start doing enterprise and find out what a fantastic impact enterprise activities can have on students.

Engaging students in a variety of enterprise activity can show them how to make a positive contribution to their community, and at the same time develop enterprising ideas that could make or save money.
