If you’re somebody who is intellectually curious about how start-ups work, like taking risks, have decision-making abilities, and are constantly trying to keep up with the start-up ecosystem, the Junior Entrepreneurship Challenge by IE University is made for you.

This is a three-week challenge with multiple masterclasses, where you will understand what is relevant in today’s start-up ecosystem, learn the tools required in ideating for them, and understand the fundamentals of Market Research, Design Thinking, Marketing, Sales and Pitching & Fundraising, and how to implement them into your own start-up ideas. The top 20 teams selected, go through a mentoring week where they get to develop their business pitch deck under a mentor. On the final day, they pitch their ideas and the team with the best business deck gets an exclusive scholarship to pursue the undergraduate programme at IE University Spain.
