Students play the role of young entrepreneurs as they start with the germ of an idea for a product and business and take it through the entire entrepreneurial process. Inspired by the TV show Shark Tank, our students will develop prototypes, formulate a business plan and devise a marketing strategy. Meanwhile, our teachers will provide guidance through contextual lessons on concepts such as wages, profits and branding. These young entrepreneurs will apply critical thinking skills to their creative ideas while honing their presentation talents in the process. The week will conclude with our young executives pitching their ideas to a celebrity panel of parent judges. Having acquired a new understanding of entrepreneurial development, these young executives will really be taking care of business!
