The Inter-School Entrepreneurship Tournament "Young Entrepreneurship Champions 2025" has ended! On June 9, the Grand Finale took place at the Zbyszek Cinema! Over the past few months, primary school students from Dzierżoniów have been working intensively on their own business ideas - and the effects of their activities have exceeded their wildest expectations!
For three months, the youth took part in workshops, meetings with experts, consultations and developed their own business concepts, in order to present their ideas to the Competition Committee and the audience during the finals. We saw incredible commitment, vast knowledge and exceptional maturity of the participants. The projects were not only interesting and innovative, but also realistic to implement - full of passion, responsibility and a fresh perspective on market needs.
