Startups at the Heart of the Championship
What makes the MiniBoss Championship unique is that it’s not based on theoretical knowledge — students present real businesses. Each team showcases a startup they have been developing throughout the school year. These projects are the result of deep research, market testing, teamwork, and many hours of dedication.
Earlier this year, the students already presented their ideas at regional Startup Forums, where they received feedback from experienced mentors, entrepreneurs, and business professionals. With those recommendations in hand, they’ve been refining their projects and are now heading into the next stage: the Startup National Cup Championship.
Preparing for the National Stage
Getting ready for the national level is a serious process. Right now, teams are polishing their presentations, optimizing financial models, updating marketing strategies, testing their products, and improving their public speaking skills.
Our championship preparation program includes:
- Weekly pitch sessions with expert feedback;
- Public speaking and negotiation training;
- Startup simulations that mirror the championship environment;
- Strategic sessions with industry mentors and business consultants.
All of this equips students not only with knowledge but also with the confidence to perform under pressure. Each participant knows they represent more than just themselves — they carry the spirit of their local branch, their city, and ultimately, their country.
