The JABC Summer Entrepreneurship & Innovation Camp is an immersive experience that empowers youth to design and pitch real-world business ideas with guidance from knowledgeable mentors. 

Participants will be placed in teams and work collaboratively to explore business modelling, public speaking, product viability, and more. Along the way, they will develop teamwork, decision-making, and critical thinking skills before pitching their ideas to a panel of expert judges in a final competition.

Completion of this program grants students eligibility to a wide array of awards, further mentorships and opportunities.
