We want to invite students of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati, to participate in the competition as we see this to be a perfect opportunity for them to apply the skills they gained at your university and widen their knowledge about social businesses. In addition, this is a possibility for the students to see the impact of their work as two out of four cases are real-life problems later solved by social entrepreneurs using the solutions provided by the teams.
More about the competition:
Creative Shock attracts youth from all over the world to educate them about the concept of social business, its implementation, and impact. The competition consists of 3 stages:
- During the 1st stage, teams of 3-4 students or individual students register, and have to solve a social business case prepared by our intellectual partner.
- During the 2nd stage, teams have to create a low-budget marketing campaign for Lithuanian or international organizations and present them through short and unique videos.
- The last stage will take place on November 30th – December 3rd at ISM University of Management and Economics, where TOP 10 teams will be competing for the Grand Prize - 2000 euros and Turkish Airlines tickets to any country of their choosing. During the 3rd stage, we will also have an international social business conference hosting famous social entrepreneurs.
