FUTURE FOUNDERS
04 - 18 JULY 2026 (Weeks 2 & 3)
Seniors: 14 - 17 YEARS OLD
Dream it. Build it. Launch it.
Designed for students aged 14–17, Future Founders invites young entrepreneurs to design and promote their own business idea — from initial concept to full launch. This innovative programme introduces the exciting world of business, creativity, and entrepreneurship. Working in teams, students explore marketing, budgeting, branding, and digital communication, learning how imagination, strategy, and collaboration can turn bold ideas into real success stories.
Morning sessions focus on developing ideas and practical skills. Building on the foundations of the LIRA programme, Future Founders includes workshops and activities such as:
- Exploring how AI and technology are transforming business.
- Learning coding and innovation techniques to bring ideas to life.
- Developing leadership and teamwork through real-world business challenges.
- Understanding social media, branding, and mental health in modern enterprise.
- Investigating global business and interviewing local entrepreneurs.
- Attending guest workshops from local professionals and business owners.
Students join the wider summer school community for afternoon and evening activities — including sports, excursions, and social events — allowing them to connect with peers from around the world while practising their English in authentic, informal settings. Selected afternoons feature additional business workshops and project work.
Excursions bring learning beyond the classroom, including a negotiation challenge that will boost quick-thinking creativity. The course culminates in an exciting Dragon’s Den-style finale, where students pitch their ideas to a panel of judges.
Future Founders inspires creativity, confidence, and collaboration — giving students the mindset and skills to become the leaders and innovators of tomorrow.

"I'd like to thank you again for your commitment towards your pupils........ I believe my son learned essential lessons about self- awareness and interpersonal skills which would have accelerated my own development tremendously if only someone had shared it with me at such a young age." PARENT
