About the JADE Network

Events: Sharing Knowledge and Supporting Intercultural Understanding

The JADE Network organises several events per year that span from small working weeks & weekends in February, May and September to big international congresses in the Summer and Winter.

While the smaller events always take place in Brussels, gathering up to 40 people, the winter and summer JADE meetings are organised by different Junior Enterprises from the network. These major events attract up to 350 student entrepreneurs from all over Europe.

Another kind of event is the Open Doors Programme. Every Junior Enterprise, Confederation Executive Board or Consultative Member can come to JADE House in Brussels for a weekend. They can work in the JADE Office and the Executive Board of JADE can give them support, experience and knowledge. This is a great opportunity to involve the members in the network and to live International Junior Enterprise Spirit.

Enlargement Programme: Spreading the Junior Enterprise Concept

The Enlargement Programme’s goal is to establish Junior Enterprises in new countries by encouraging and supporting activities implemented by our members or other students.

JADE provides training to the associated people, organises information events at universities and gives financial as well as logistical support.

Exchange Programme: Supporting Youth Mobility

The Exchange Programme promotes the mobility of students among Junior Enterprises within the JADE Network and between Europe and Brazil. A unique and professional experience is guaranteed through an elaborated procedure that ensures a quick and reliable matching of the students’ and JE’s needs and interests.

If you join the Exchange Programme you have the possibility to learn from other countries, cultures and ways of working.
