Young Entrepreneurs Academy: Turning Ideas Into Action
The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA) is on a mission to ignite the entrepreneurial spark in young people — giving them the tools, confidence and mindset to bring ideas to life. In this high-energy, hands-on workshop, girls will learn how to spot everyday problems, think creatively and turn their interests into exciting business ideas.

Through guided activities and collaborative challenges, participants will build confidence in communication, decision-making and self-expression. Each session ends with girls pitching their ideas back to the group in a fun and supportive environment.

All ideas will be entered into the festival-wide competition, with one winning idea announced at the end of the day. The winner will receive two mentoring sessions with YEA to help take their idea further.
