Problem Statement

International high school students interested in economics, finance, entrepreneurship, and policy face a critical lack of structured opportunities beyond the classroom. Unlike their peers in the US, who can access well-established pre-college programs, internships, and organizations, students abroad remain underserved.

Our Mission

Geographic Inequality – Most opportunities (research, internships, programs) are concentrated in the US and Western countries, leaving international students excluded.

Opportunity Inaccessibility – Many students of average income and background lack the patronage to interact directly with industry experts; the information gap further leads to many opportunities going unheard.

Limited Practical Exposure Outside of a handful of competitions, students rarely get to apply economics in real-world contexts or learn directly from industry professionals

Our mission is to expand economic horizons for international high school students by creating a global platform that provides access to competitions, outreach programs, and professional engagement. We aim to bridge the opportunity gap between students, fostering a community where youth can explore economics, finance, entrepreneurship, and policy through real-world application and collaboration with industry experts and like-minded peers.
