Youth In The Dragons Den
Youth in the Dragons’ Den brought together young people from across the UK with the objective of stimulating their creativity, initiative and sense of entrepreneurship.
It gave participants the chance to develop their own projects especially through the creation of a Youth Initiative application which they presented at the end of the project, in front of our four Dragons (British Council programme staff and Justin Deakin).
Recreating the well-known television programmes ‘Dragons’ Den’ and ‘The Apprentice’ participants had challenges, such as to create a Circus performance in just a few hours and to design their own pizza for ‘Pizza Express’ menu.
They also had the chance to meet professionals responsible for a high-end shoe designer, a social enterprise and an international radio station.
