The New Dawn Young People's Business Fair inspires young people to discover their inner entrepreneur. Its the first entrepreneurship event for young people in Luanshya, this one-day market gives young people the opportunity to showcase their very own businesses.
Start with our resources page. take a recommended free business course.
Application must be submitted online. Please submit one application for each business. Young people working as a group should submit one application that includes each person’s information. No more than 5 participants per business.
The application asks young people to think through some simple, but important elements of their business:
What product or service do you plan to sell?
What price will you charge for each product/service? How much will each product/service cost you?
How will you pay for your startup costs? If someone is helping you with your startup costs, how will you pay that person back?
How will you advertise/market your business before the fair?
At the end of the fair, how will you determine if your business was a success?
Not a problem. In general, we will let market forces play out, though we will let later entries know if another applicant has a similar idea so the later entrant can decide what to do.
The fair will be a tented outdoor event with booths. We are not able to accommodate businesses requiring electricity.
This event is designed to give young people the experience of selling a product or service. If a parent, guardian, teacher or guider is found selling or promoting a young person's or young people’s product or service, the business will be disqualified from the competition.
Parents, teachers and guiders of younger people may sit in the booth, but the young people should be responsible for set up, customer interaction, and sales.
Parents, teachers and guiders may help their child fill out the application, but we expect the children to do as much as possible by themselves.
