A follow through project of the Training for Entrepreneurship Program of the Youth Development Office, the QC Youth Entrepreneurship Fair is designed to showcase new businesses owned by and implemented by trained city youth. It also intends to strengthen the Quezon City Start-Up ecosystem, providing an opportunity for the youth to market their products and services.
The QC Youth Entrepreneurship Fair aims to achieve the following:
- Successfully introduce businesses initiated and managed by the city’s trained youth
- Introduction of a viable business outlet for young entrepreneurs
- Establishment of a business community inspired by the city’s youth
- Promotion of a sustainable framework for youth-related entrepreneurship fairs
The fair serves as a bridge for the youth, especially the out-of-school youths (OSYs) to spotlight their talents and boost their presence in the competitive business landscape.
Last August 2023, the QC Youth Entrepreneurship Fair featured twenty-six (26) youth-owned businesses.
