Junior Enterprises World Day 2023
Celebrating Unity and Vision
Junior Enterprises World Day 2023
Each year, the Junior Enterprises World Day (JEWD) reminds us why this movement exists—and why it continues to grow. It is a moment to pause, to connect across continents, and to honour the collective power of young people shaping their future through action, leadership, and enterprise.
JEWD 2023 was no exception. This global day of celebration brought together voices from across the network to reflect on our shared journey and look ahead to the work still to come.
A Global Conversation
This year’s event featured inspiring insights from three powerful speakers, each offering a different lens on what the Junior Enterprise Movement means in their context:
Christian Christodulopulos, representing the voice of our Alumni, reminded us of the long-term impact the JE experience leaves behind.
Lennart Jordan, President of Junior Enterprises Austria, spoke about institutional strength and the importance of national coordination.
Felipe Simões, from Brasil Júnior, brought forward a vibrant perspective from Latin America’s growing and dynamic Junior Enterprise ecosystem.
Their contributions reflected the spirit of JEWD itself: diverse, forward-looking, and deeply rooted in the shared values of entrepreneurship, collaboration, and youth empowerment.
Thank You to the Network
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone involved—from participants and speakers to the organising teams and countless Junior Entrepreneurs who celebrated in their own way across the globe. Your engagement made this World Day truly global.
As we continue to build a stronger, more united network, JEWD remains a powerful reminder that, wherever we are in the world, we are part of something much greater.
We are not just local initiatives—we are a global movement.
Until next year.
