Founder of MiniBoss: 'We provide opportunities for children to demonstrate their projects in international arena'

The activities of MiniBoss Business School Baku include the establishment of cooperative relations with certain enterprises, the provision of their services and products with a point of sale, and then the creation of the conditions for them to successfully demonstrate their projects in the international arena, the founder of the school, Narmina Hasanova, said at the opening ceremony of the Startup Forum-2024 held in Baku, Report informs.

"Children have different feelings when they go on stage. Presenting projects that have been prepared for months in 4 minutes is not something that every professional entrepreneur can do. Children must surprise the jury with the startups they present, and also prove that their projects will be successful and necessary," she stressed.

Noting that the school always supports young startups, Hasanova pointed out that the pedagogical staff evaluates the children's opinions, draws up a business plan together with them, and then prepares them for presentation.

The director of MiniBoss Business School Baku, Alina Khalafova, said that while the number of teams participating in the startup was 11 last year, this year the interest has increased and 17 teams are presenting business projects in various fields: "This year, students of MiniBoss Business School will present startups covering business-oriented textile, entertainment, food, perfumery, IT, and environmental fields to the jury. Later, the jury will evaluate the startups, and the teams will be presented with a grant for the implementation of their projects."

In the end, the director of the school wished success to the Startup Forum-2024.
