Event Launch - The Future of Our Town Centre – Student Pitch Challenge!

Online and on social media throughout the day

During Global Entrepreneurship Week, we will be launching an exciting and inspiring event where creativity meets community vision, 'The Future of Our Town Centre – Student Pitch Challenge'!

This challenge invites students to reimagine the future of their local town centres - Ballymena, Carrickfergus, or Larne - and present their ideas to a panel of “Dragons.”

The competition is open to Years 9 & 10 and Years 11 & 12.

Teams may include up to six students, and schools are welcome to enter multiple teams.

Each team will develop a pitch focused on revitalising their chosen town centre.

Their presentation will be judged by a panel of Dragons, who will be looking for bold ideas, thoughtful analysis, and a clear vision for the future.
