🎓 From classroom to boardroom: 18 students took part in Business Week at Gruner What is it like to run a company, make strategic decisions and take responsibility for the company’s success? That's exactly what 18 students from Muttenz High School experienced during Business Week at Gruner. In collaboration with Handelskammer beider Basel and wirtschaftsbildung.ch, Gruner hosted its first-ever Business Week. For the students, this was an opportunity to experience business beyond the classroom and step into the role of entrepreneurs. In a realistic business simulation, they managed fictional companies through five turbulent financial years, developed strategies, responded to challenges and experienced the impact of their decisions. The highlight of the week was the investors’ conference, where the students presented their companies and business results to a panel of judges. “The quality and content of the presentations impressively showed just how much can be achieved in one week,” said Prisca Valentino (Dr., DBA), Senior HR Business Partner at Gruner. Insights like these help young people to understand economic principles in a practical way and to develop an entrepreneurial mindset. We are delighted to contribute to this important learning experience. Thank you to Handelskammer beider Basel, wirtschaftsbildung.ch and everyone involved who made this week possible. #Gruner #BusinessWeek #Education #SupportingYoungTalent
