The Entrepreneurial Challenge for Youth 2020 is the final event of a program to promote entrepreneurship among young people in the Municipality of Ptuj. SRC Bistra Ptuj and the School Center Ptuj, especially the School of Economics, have been cooperating in encouraging young people to think entrepreneurially. This year, we also included elementary school students from Ptuj, Podlehnik and Ormož, who were especially distinguished by winning the first place in the entire competition.
According to the 5 members expert commission, there are two winning teams this year, as they collected the same number of points according to the criteria of innovation, practical and business applicability and the implementation of the presentation. The Drava line team presented their vision of a special tourist attraction in Ormož, where they would set up ziplines across the Drava. The first place was also won by the Camp JA Slovenija team, which presented the possibility of encouraging people to handle electrical appliances responsibly via an online application.
Awareness-raising is also a key goal of the third-ranked team Keychain 0.0 driver, of course in the field of prevention of traffic accidents due to alcoholism.
All participants of the e-event voted for their best idea and after a close result of the voting, the audience award was won by the Palcice team, which ensures that it is also possible to sweeten healthily.
