And it's a wrap! - Kidpreneur Summer 2021

 

"Every journey is simultaneously a beginning and an ending..."- Debi Tolbert Duggar


And it's a wrap!

Our 5-day Kidpreneur Klub summer session was filled with lots of learning, fun and pitches too!😀

Here's a snapshot of what went up...

The class started with teaching the 30 kids enrolled for the programme about the mindset of an entrepreneur using our award-winning acronym - E.N.T.R.E.P.R.E.N.E.U.R. That doubled as our skills-building class. We moved on to helping them find their great/fun business ideas using assessment sheets. They also had to design their marketing materials in our creative design class where the kids were exposed to various methods to promote their business ideas. And guess what? The kids created their posters and flyers for their businesses! 

Check out some of them below:



Business Name: Eyin's Faces by Eyinojuoluwa


Business Name: Vanniebeauty by Vanessa



Business Name: The Juice Box by Kamsi



Business Name: IDEK Poems by Sophie

                                            
Business Name: Ebube Sci-Fi's books by Ebube


 Business Name: Codeway by Titoluwa



Business Name: SDA (Accessories) by Sophie and Dorothy

And we ended up with 12 kids pitching their business ideas to a Guest Panelist from the Student Enterprise department at the University of Surrey. The session ended with the group photo below.😀


Our next summer session would hold next year from the 1st - 5th August 2022.

Keep an eye out for our other upcoming programmes too.

Yours in inspiring an entrepreneurial mindset.

  " As  skills  and  energy became more  of  a  demand,  people  who  didn't have skills just  got  left  behind,  got  shuttled  to  the  side.  Education  didn't keep  up  with their  promise. Education  didn't  prepare  them  for  this  new  world"  - JULIAN BOND I got a call from someone the other day asking, ‘What exactly is the Kidpreneur Klub’? My immediate inner response was ‘What???... With all these blogs??? 😃😃😃 Today, I thought to break it down a little bit more and buttress with a Kidpreneur’s story... The Kidpreneur Klub is all about raising a community of kid-entrepreneurs. We help kids develop  future-ready skills  in a fun and engaging way through our project-based  entrepreneurship   programmes.   Based on research, there has recently been a heavy focus on improving technical skills such as computer programming and data science while the development of soft skills has taken a back seat.  Entrepreneurial education however offers much
