HundrED.org highlighted Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship’s World Series of Innovation (WSI) in an April 19, 2024, article titled: “Challenging students to solve the SDGs through entrepreneurship.”
Jason Silveira, a NFTE alumnus and WSI Program Manager, explained the benefits of this award-winning program. “By challenging young people to create entrepreneurial solutions to the UN SDGs,” he said, “NFTE develops their entrepreneurial mindset, emphasizing opportunity recognition, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Participants develop both hard skills and soft skills (also known as noncognitive or success skills) while leveraging their own passions to support their business, education, and career goals.”
