Training young 'uns to be entrepreneurs

The Young Entrepreneur Camp 2010 will be held during the November and December school holidays for children aged nine to 15 years old.

Children can become a mini mogul or a teen mogul by learning simple principles of entrepreneurship, business sense and money matters.

The highlight of the camp is an entrepreneurial competition judged by real Malaysian entrepreneurs, including Datuk Steven Sim, the chief executive officer and managing director of Secret Recipe Cakes & Cafe.

The dates for the camp are as follows:

Mini Mogul Series (ages 9-12)
Nov 22-24
Dec 6-8

Teen Mogul Series (ages 13-15)
Nov 29-Dec 1
Dec 13-15

The camp will be held at the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park.

The registration fee of RM450 per person includes meals, a free entry to the KL Bird Park, mineral water, camp materials and a certificate of attendance.

There is an early bird rate (RM405 per person) and a group discount (RM350 per person for registrations of three people or more in either camps).
