What could be more interesting than combining the business environment with outdoor activities practiced in safe conditions and in a unique atmosphere?
This summer KEN Academy, a complex financial and entrepreneurial education program for children aged between 7 and 13, launches entrepreneurial camp through Adventure!
Theme and Objectives: Within the program, we aim to strengthen the child's spirit of initiative and confidence that he has the intrinsic ability to develop entrepreneurial projects.
By the end of the camp, the children will build a team business plan based on the marketing mix (product, placement, promotion, price) for a business selected by them at the outset.
Surprise: this plan will be implemented and carried out by the children in the form of a real sales event that will take place on the 7th day of "camp" in Bucharest.
