Modern Entrepreneurship Sales Pitch Event
On February 15, our HS Modern Entrepreneurship students presented their sustainable business plans for various products at their Sales Pitch Event in front of a panel of judges, consisting of AIS Vienna Board Members and parents. From product design to management, finance, marketing, customer relations, and corporate responsibility our future leaders applied the lessons learned and showed their entrepreneurial mindset.
After asking any necessary clarification questions, the judges could either “buy” or “pass” on the products. The big highlight for everyone was the "Super Buy Round," where judges went out of their way to "purchase" products they had not been assigned to evaluate, and offered additional feedback to more students. They also gave general impressions about the group's creativity and passion, along with words of wisdom. The most important overall takeaway for students, however, was the valuable feedback that judges provided on how their designs, marketing, or deliveries could be improved. Thanks so much to our wonderful volunteer judges for the gifts of their time and talent!
Our young entrepreneurs were inspiring in the pursuit of their passions, their ability to imagine possibilities, and their business plans to make their products a reality.
