Every kid has ideas. Most never do anything with them.
This course changes that.

I believe inside every kid is an entrepreneur. Not necessarily someone who wants to be "CEO" but someone capable of seeing a problem, imagining a solution, and making it real.

In this course, your child will:
✓ Develop a real business idea: something they actually care about, not an abstract project
✓ Understand the market: Who needs this? Why? Who else offers it? Why would theirs be better?
✓ Create a simple business plan: the version that actually works, not 50 pages of jargon
✓ Design a brand: logo, name, story. Why their business exists (not just to make money)
✓ Build and test their idea: even at small scale, they'll see if people actually want what they created
✓ Learn to lead a team: we work in groups, so they'll experience real collaboration
✓ Use technology smartly: real tools to grow a business
✓ Get feedback from real entrepreneurs: not just from me, but from people building things right now

Why this is different:
Most "entrepreneurship courses for kids" teach theory. Here we build something real.
Your child won't just learn about entrepreneurship. They'll experience it: having an idea, developing it, sharing it, and getting genuine feedback.

Some will have a business. Others will discover it's not for them. Both are successes because they learned something real about themselves.

What they take home:
A complete business plan. A brand they designed. A presentation they delivered. And most importantly: the conviction that their ideas matter and they can make them real.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Group and individual work, flexible

For kids with big ideas and adults who want to nurture them.
