Start-up Bootcamp for the next generation

This month we hosted the inaugural InTick Founder Bootcamp, bringing together a group of 16-year-olds for an immersive two-day educational programme on financial markets and entrepreneurship.

The schedule balanced technical financial literacy with the practical skills needed to launch a startup and build a brand. These young minds dived into everything from financial markets, trading, technology and product scaling, marketing, and commercial modelling!

The highlight was the competitive Startup Challenge, where students refined their public speaking skills to pitch business ideas to a panel of InTick investors. Starting with a "Fix Your World" workshop, they identified real-world problems, designed business models, practised rapid-fire 60-second pitches, and delivered an amazing demo day of investor pitches. The sheer creativity, drive, and depth of the ideas these participants pitched was nothing short of inspirational. If this is a preview of the next generation of founders, we are in great hands.

A massive thank you to everyone who made this inaugural bootcamp possible, including Streets Consulting, our keynote speakers, and the mentors who guided these teams.
