Build
a business in GLOBAL BUSINESS & ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
Building, owning, and operating your
own business is an experience like
no other, so why wait until after college
to learn how? This “junior MBS” program
will expose you to a curriculum similar
to a business school’s, but designed
specifically for motivated high school
students. You’ll learn what it
takes to build a business – from
that first great idea to the birth
of a successful company. Business leaders,
educators, and executives will share
firsthand knowledge on how to get the
job done.
Lay the foundation in the BUSINESS
PLAN SIMULATION.
Team of junior entrepreneurs develop
and execute full-scale business plans – a
critical component of any emerging
company. Your plan will include everything
from concept and product development
to marketing, sales, and finance guidelines.
You’ll also research the competitive
landscape, and make savvy decisions
to ensure success.
Present your ideas to real investors
for valuable feedback.
It’s not surprising that investors
and venture capitalists tell us some
of the freshest ideas they’ve
ever heard come from students in this
program. With thorough training and
creative collaboration, you’ll
be better prepared then may entrepreneurs
in real-word situations. Practice your
presentation skills and “sell” your
idea – once you’ve done
it here, there’s no limit to
what you can do “out there.”
