As part of its Start-Up Support Initiative, Yonsei hosted the Youth Business Start-Up School on February 24 and 25. Also known as the Start-Up Dream Canvass School, the event welcomed area high school students, including many from the “Bizcool” (Business + School)program; the aim was to provide students a forum for developing ideas for business start-ups through practical learning activities.

 

A number of experienced entrepreneurs from a variety of business sectors mentored the students in how to establish a realistic start-up business. More specifically, the curriculum focused on idea generation, preparing and organizing proposals, and developing marketing strategies.

 

 

 

According to one of the student participants, Lee Won-young, the Youth Business Start-Up School “was a very helpful and practical learning event. Start-up item ideas can be vague. This learning event assisted me in familiarizing myself with thoughtful planning and analysis regarding detailed organization and realization of start-up ideas.”
