Student participants are divided into teams of 10-12, who function as an imaginary "company" for the program. With the task of turning their company into a financial success, they create a unique product, develop marketing strategies and design a commercial. In essence, they will make all of the decisions that are demanded of real life company executives.

In addition, students interact with guest speakers, tour local companies and compete in an online business simulation.

2011 Mini Business World
More than 170 Dane County high school students were scheduled to join us for the first-ever Mini Business World program on February 17, 2011 at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison.

Mini Business World works like this: Along with other kids from your school, students are placed in charge of a "company” and be expected to make many of the same decisions demanded of real-life company executives. Compete for prizes as you design marketing materials, create a commercial, and compete for market share in a simulated marketplace. Hear from speakers on important issues to your future like interview skills, social media, and generational differences in the workplace.

Interested? Talk to your business education teacher or contact Steve at (888) 276-7953, for more information.
