THE CHALLENGE - a systemic oversight
In today’s fast-paced world, the traditional education system is often seen as outdated, especially when it comes to nurturing entrepreneurial talents. Students are encouraged to fit into specific roles, with a curriculum that’s more about following rules than fostering innovation. But what happens to the creative minds, the young innovators, the budding entrepreneurs of tomorrow?
Sadly, entrepreneurship isn’t given the attention it deserves in schools.
Young people with bright ideas and a passion for innovation often feel trapped. The focus is mostly on exams and grades, leaving little room for those who want to explore the world of business and creativity. Students are taught to memorise and repeat rather than to think outside the box and create.
This lack of support for entrepreneurship doesn’t just limit the growth of young business minds; it also means we miss out on potential innovations and solutions that could make our world a better place. It’s a loss for both the individual and society.
In this setting, young talents are like seeds in a garden that’s not being tended to. They need a place where they can grow and flourish—a place where their entrepreneurial spirits are recognised, celebrated, and nurtured.
THE SOLUTION - A new dawn for young entrepreneurs
Meet the Curious Entrepreneurs Community by Inspire 2 Ignite – a place where young people’s business dreams come to life!
In a world where schools don’t always support students who want to be entrepreneurs, our community stands out as a shining light. We know that every teenager has a world of untapped potential and ideas that can change the world.
We’re not just a group; we’re a movement. We’re changing the way young people learn about business. Entrepreneurship isn’t just about making money; it’s a way of thinking, a way of life, and a journey of personal growth.
WHY ARE WE SPECIAL?
Learning by doing: Our members don’t just learn from books; they experience the real world of business. It is our belief is that entrepreneurship is best learnt out in the real world, the challenges and quests we set the young people encourage them to step out of their comfort zones.

THE JOURNEY - from dreams to reality
Welcome to the next chapter with the Curious Entrepreneurs Community – where ideas turn into action, and dreams become real businesses!
Every young person who joins us is starting on an exciting journey. It’s not just about learning; it’s about doing. In our community, every member gets the chance to take their ideas and turn them into real projects and businesses.
HERE’S WHAT THE JOURNEY LOOKS LIKE:
Discovering Ideas: Every great business starts with a great idea. We help our members explore their thoughts and creativity to find ideas that could turn into fantastic businesses.
Learning the Ropes from THE BEST: Business can be tricky, but we’re here to help. Our members learn everything they need to know to take an idea and turn it into a successful business. Do you want your young people to learn business from an ex-dragon or from a teacher that has never run a business?
Getting Hands-On: In our community, learning is active. Our members don’t just sit and listen; they get involved, try things out, and learn by doing.
Being Supported: Every step of the way, our members are supported by mentors, teachers, and fellow young entrepreneurs. It’s a journey, but no one has to walk it alone.
REAL STORIES OF SUCCESS

Bailey’s story isn’t just about business success; it’s all about personal growth, confidence, and the joy of achieving something special. He scaled from 0 to 4000 units sold, he is now 18 and helping to support the next generation with us.

Meg Jones watched her daughter transform from a young girl full of self-doubt to a confident young woman ready to take on the world. It wasn’t just the business knowledge that made the difference – it was the support, the community, and the belief that she could achieve anything she set her mind to.
