Innovation Showcase – 12th March 2025
The Innovation Showcase guides year 9/10 students as they turn their “bright idea” into a commercial product that they will take to market. The day is designed to give students an insight into setting up and running their own business, and the skills and behaviours required of entrepreneurs. It encourages creative thinking, teamwork and communication skills and will enthuse and invigorate young minds.
