YLES was one of the most WOAH moments of my life. The ideas behind the events, the people, the activities were all soo awesome that the only word I could form was ‘WOAH’!
I will say that it wasn’t easy, making presentations or using softwares you’ve never heard off but man, the things that it opens your mind to, the experience, the whole event was so rewarding, and so much learning with fun that it’s beyond comprehension. To end, I can say with full confidence, that award or no, what you learn and experience here will stay with you for life.

Summing up YLES’17 in three words: thrilling, transformative, unforgettable. Initially, I approached it casually, but it turned out to be an eye-opening journey into entrepreneurship. From brainstorming ideas to creating stalls and crafting advertisements, each round pushed our potential. Despite challenges, it taught me valuable entrepreneurship skills, teamwork, and meeting deadlines—a memorable experience.
