Entrepreneurship in the Skills Workshops, step by step!
Company Junior is an innovative training program for entrepreneurship. It is aimed at ages 11-15 (5th grade to 3rd high school) and is offered free of charge. It is part of the Skills Workshops of the IEP and specifically the Thematic Axis: Create and Innovate – Creative Thinking and Initiative. However, it can also be implemented independently of them. The Company Junior program is implemented with the funding of the Ioannis S. Latsis Foundation.
During the 2021-22 school year, 1,600 students from primary and secondary schools in the country and Greek schools abroad participated in the program, developing creative business ideas.
