International Business Academy Startup Camp has officially announced enrollment for its international summer education camps in Greece and the United Kingdom, designed for children and teenagers from Turkmenistan and other countries. The program combines recreation with leadership development, entrepreneurship education, and teamwork in a global environment.

The Greek camp will take place at the five-star Cronwell Platamon Resort, located on the coast of the Aegean Sea near Mount Olympus. Participants will engage in leadership workshops, business simulations, startup project development, and outdoor activities in an environment where ancient history meets modern entrepreneurial culture. This experience is aimed at expanding the global outlook of young people from Turkmenistan.

The United Kingdom will serve as the second destination of the Startup Camp. Participants will visit Glasgow and Edinburgh, explore the business education standards of leading universities, and immerse themselves in the country’s startup and innovation ecosystem. Young representatives from Turkmenistan will develop their own projects under the guidance of experienced international mentors.

Regardless of the chosen country, the program focuses on emotional intelligence, self-confidence, teamwork skills, public speaking, and effective presentation of ideas.
