Creative Young Entrepreneur (CYE) Group

The goal of the Creative Young Entrepreneur (CYE) program is for young leaders to showcase their up and running businesses and to help bring them to the next level. CYE challenges young entrepreneurs to think critically and creatively by requiring them to provide an in-depth business model, their marketing position and strategic goals on how their venture will begin to earn a profit and become sustainable.

Our goal is to enable our JCI NZ community to host our own CYE programs to stimulate youth entrepreneurship.

This program will be the first step in creating a JCI-inspired unicorn business and will help further our 2022 Key Performance Indicators. With the CYE program being not only open to JCI members but to non-members across the globe as well, JCI furthers its reach. Every business that is supported through the JCI CYE program is sure to increase brand visibility and in turn, membership growth and retention and financial sustainability.
