Business Enterprise Challenge
This programme requires participants to work in teams to simulate real-world scenarios in education and employment. Tasked with completing a business brief to design a concept for an ‘App’, it’s packed full of activities and challenges for learners to complete. Tasks range from designing initial concepts, design, creating a pitch, marketing and business plans and more!
This hands-on programme focuses on building critical skills like teamwork, problem-solving, project management, and presentation skills, making it a comprehensive and impactful learning experience.

Crucial in completing the challenge, groups are tasked with working together to create and deliver the following:
- A business plan
- A marketing plan
- A product
- A financial forecast.
With looming deadlines, groups must delegate and decide which tasks are most important for them to complete in order to successfully deliver their business plan.
The programme offers the opportunity for learners to pitch their final business plan to a panel of judges, who decide the winning group based off a range of scoring criteria and considerations. The judges can be made up of their peers, your teaching/support staff or even industry experts (location dependant).
With certificates available for winning groups to reward them for their achievements, this is a programme that always produces impressive results and one that learners always enjoy.
The Business Enterprise Challenge supports schools and colleges to achieve the following:
Gatsby Benchmarks: 1 – 3 – 4 – 5
NERUPI Themes: C – D
