Programme Highlights
Shark Tank Challenge
Inspired by the famous TV show, participants work in teams to create their own business ideas. The week kicks off with fast, one-minute pitches, and the top projects are chosen by the students themselves. Over the following days, teams develop their concepts before presenting them to an audience. Creativity, teamwork, and an entrepreneurial spirit take centre stage.
Unconference
In this open discussion format, participants choose the topics themselves. Anyone can suggest ideas, and the group decides together which sessions will take place. This creates a dynamic exchange that encourages spontaneity, collaboration, and peer-to-peer learning.
Talent Show
At the end of the week, the stage belongs entirely to the participants. Whether it’s music, dance, comedy, or something completely different – they can showcase their talents, build confidence, and enjoy the applause of their new friends.
Helping with Meals
Teamwork doesn’t stop at projects – everyone also helps with lunch and dinner. Groups take turns preparing, serving, or clearing up, which further strengthens the sense of community.

For participants staying for two weeks, the main activities like the Shark Tank Challenge, Unconference, and Talent Show remain – but with new teams, fresh ideas, and different discussion topics.
