Learn entrepreneurial thinking through real-world action.
Over three months, students build and launch product-based business in a guided simulation. They use e-commerce platforms such as Amazon as a learning laboratory and work through the full entrepreneurial cycle: market research, product validation, prototyping, unit economics, and go-to-market strategy. Along the way, they learn to spot opportunities where others see problems and turn that thinking into measurable outcomes. As a result, students learn to think like founders. The goal is not to train sellers, but to build the mindset and skills that translate to any career path.
12-week program: screencast modules, weekly live sessions, mentorship, and homework feedback, plus AI tools, templates, and access to the digital learning platform. The fee also includes sample production and delivery to students.
Early-bird pricing available until 28 February 2026.
Our youth practicum is built around the U.S. market - one of the most competitive environments for learning. What you learn here applies across markets.
The program runs in Russian. English is required to work with research, analytics, and selected materials.
Apply for April 2026.
