Youth Entrepreneurship
The CDÉNÉ undertakes various projects and initiatives to support youth entrepreneurship. We work closely with Université Sainte-Anne and the Conseil scolaire acadien provincial (CSAP) to share the values of the entrepreneurial culture with young people.
Collaborative Agreement with the CSAP
The CDÉNÉ signed a collaborative agreement with the CSAP focussed on a common goal of increasing youth entrepreneurial spirit and entrepreneurship in general. This has led to the organization of a variety of entrepreneurial activities and experiences for students:
- Integrating entrepreneurial strategies into the CSAP curriculum;
- Networking activities where students meet and develop a deeper understanding of local entrepreneurs;
- Business Pitch competitions, where Université Sainte-Anne and CSAP students have an opportunity to present their entrepreneurial ideas to a jury from the business world, to get advice and to potentially obtain funding for their initiatives;
- Mentoring young people to support the development of the entrepreneurial thought process or mindset;
- Entrepreneurship boot camps for students;
- Workshops for youth on current topics related to entrepreneurship.
