Andorra's School Entrepreneurship Day Doubles Participation to 50 Students

The second edition of Andorra's School Entrepreneurship Day doubled student participation to 50, featuring 20 projects focused on sustainability, technology, social innovation, and design.

Organised by the Ministry of Institutional Relations, Education and Universities in collaboration with Andorra Recerca + Innovació (AR+I), the event drew students from all eight centres in the Network of Entrepreneurial and Innovative Schools. Advanced to March this year to encourage greater involvement, it expanded from last year's 29 participants and 12 projects, which operated under the motto "Un somni gran" (Dream Big). Students tackled real-world problems using time-limited entrepreneurial methods, linking classroom learning to practical challenges in areas such as digital technology, environmental sustainability, and architectural innovation.

State Secretary for Education and Universities Josep Anton Bardina praised the network as "key to strengthening entrepreneurship within the education system." He highlighted its success in fostering creative, critical, and committed young people.

Standout projects included Ecopirineu from EASE d'Ordino, which proposed a consultancy firm for renewable energy; an architectural innovation from EASE de Santa Coloma designing a leisure space; and Level Up from CFP Aixovall—the winner of Tàndem 2026—aimed at enhancing the experience of novice skiers.

The day concluded with a talk by Andorra-based composer Òscar Araujo, "The boy who fulfilled all his dreams." He shared his international career in video games, film, and advertising, including work with major studios and brands, recordings at Abbey Road with leading orchestras, and an Oscar pre-selection for Best Original Song.
