Job Shadow
During Job Shadow, you’ll get to explore interesting companies and meet inspiring people. Some of you will also get to tackle real-life ideation tasks from the business world – and present your solutions to companies!
The list of Job Shadow places will be added here later!
Trade Fair
At the Showcasing Trade Fair, the goal is to present your JA company’s activities to the other participants of the project. You’ll have time to explore each other’s work and accomplishments – and act as judges for one another! So the fair is not so much about selling, but rather about looking back and reflecting on the past year and everything you’ve learned. The prizes will be awarded based on your voting. There will be a table for each stand in showcasing trade fair, no walls.
Pitching competition during the trade fair is your chance to shine and show all your pitching skills developed throughout the year, so give it your best shot!
