University and Secondary

We have a core belief... Young people are going to change the way our world works.

Developing the next generation of global entrepreneurs... We provide you with entrepreneurial leadership & management competencies, business tools, systems thinking skills, and critical life skills - then engage you in the greater good.

  • Eco-Adventure Travel - Running global eco-adventure programs with a higher purpose (getting outdoors, active, and engaged in the greater good.)
  • Global Young Entrepreneur Academies (YEA's) - Creating a global network of social & environmental entrepreneurs to lead meaningful change initiatives at home and abroad.
  • Microfinance and Venture Philanthropy - Providing capacity building investments to social entrepreneurs & ngos with great ideas, but limited access to funding.
  • The Environment - Working on balanced environmental issues at home and abroad.
  • Strengthening global cohesion - Building bridges between countries, cultures, races, religions, and economic strata.

*Currently funding business start-up and capacity building loans in Tanzania, Rwanda, Peru, and the United States.

Who we are... We are part eco-adventure travel, part business school, part United Nations, part micro-lender, and part environmental alliance. Combining the best from each area, we created a social entrepreneur development program like no other.

And yes, it’s all true... We have a ridiculous amount of fun & adventure along the way. Join us in cool places like Tanzania, Nepal, Peru, Switzerland, New Zealand, the BVI’s, the Rockies, and Park City, UT.

Concerned about the expense... Over 50% of our students receive scholarships.
