For a third consecutive year, Ashoka’s Youth Venture® and Staples Foundation for Learning® have been proud to sponsor the Staples Ashoka Youth Social Entrepreneur Competition. This global opportunity was open to all Youth Venture Teams in good standing, with members between the ages 12-24,
and possessed demonstrated excellence in leading positive social change in their community. A community was defined as a local neighborhood, city, nation, or world.
Ashoka’s Youth Venture operates programs in 17 countries – and its global program staff nominated Venture Teams from each country to participate and compete in this year’s opportunity.
