A bit of context ©JADE – European Confederation of Junior Enterprises \ jadenet.org

A Junior Enterprise is the way to empower university students A Junior Enterprise is a non-profit organization, formed and managed exclusively by university students, which provides services for companies, institutions and individuals.

Junior Enterprises are similar to real companies, with the main goal of enhancing the learning pf their members through practical experiences.

Merging the practical experience to the entrepreneurial ownership, Junior Enterprises are a relevant complement to the formal education, maximizing the value for the university students.

It is about enhancing the opportunities for students to foster their knowledge and skills.

I would say that if I wouldn’t have had the chance to participate in a JE, I wouldn't be able to build a successful start-up to disrupt a huge market.

It is really awesome how much you can learn when you are working as a student consultant.
