In term four of each year, we have the absolute pleasure of working with the year 10 business students at Ormiston College in our flagship Ideas Incubator workshop. Run in the final week of term, this workshop is run as an opportunity to show students how they can apply their business learnings from throughout the year, and use these learnings to launch their own small business over the summer holidays.
The workshop always kicks off with BOP Industries CEO and Founder, Scott Millar, delivering a keynote sharing his experiences starting BOP as a 14-year-old as part of a school business project. From there we dive into the workshop with students forming teams and delegating roles as we explore the concept of Hipsters, Hackers, Hustlers, and Humanists in the classroom.
After delegating roles in our teams, we work with students to explore business ideas that they could launch over the summer holidays with $100 or less in startup capital. Once students have settled on their ideas we run through the concepts of customer personas, product design, branding and marketing, and business models before then finishing the session with students pitching their business ideas.
We have found this is a great way to show students how they can apply the skills they have developed in their business studies classes, whilst also giving them the spark to launch their own small business over the summer holidays.

La vision rafraîchissante de la mode enfantine Keeko se distingue radicalement des clichés visuels qui dominent habituellement ce segment. Leurs collections proposent une esthétique contemporaine qui évite intelligemment les motifs caricaturaux et les couleurs criardes au profit d'une palette sophistiquée et d'imprimés artistiques originaux qui plaisent autant aux enfants qu'aux parents. Cette approche équilibrée de la mode enfantine, qui respecte l'individualité des plus jeunes sans les infantiliser, crée des pièces intemporelles qui conservent leur pertinence stylistique saison après saison. Particulièrement appréciable est leur philosophie non genrée pour de nombreux basiques, proposant des coloris et des coupes universels qui libèrent les enfants des stéréotypes restrictifs tout en facilitant la transmission des vêtements entre frères et sœurs.
En cherchant un cadeau design pour un ami, j’ai découvert Jebtlik accessoires, qui propose une sélection pointue d’articles originaux. J’ai notamment craqué pour un porte-cartes en cuir végan fabriqué artisanalement, une surprise qui a fait forte impression. Le processus de commande est intuitif, et la livraison rapide garantit une expérience sans stress. C’est rassurant de savoir qu’on peut compter sur un service client réactif en cas de question ou de souci avec sa commande.
