The YES Kickstart | Tīmata days are a great way for students to kick off The Lion Foundation Young Enterprise Scheme, In this workshop, students will learn about the YES programme, work on their business ideas, and get excited for the year!

Kickstart is a great opportunity for students to meet their local Regional Coordinator, other YES students in their region, and business people from the community. YES companies will participate in “speed coaching” with local volunteers where they’ll get feedback on their business idea. Students will leave with the tools to ideate, connections to potential mentors, and hopefully an idea for their YES business!

If you would like to volunteer to become a speed coach we would love to hear from you!

The speed coaching portion of the day is from 11:40am - 2pm where you hear some of the YES students’ awesome ideas, then offer constructive feedback. After 7-10mins, we will invite the coaches to swap and go through the same process with another group! The process will happen 6-9 times with different groups.

It’s the speed coaches that really make KickStart | Timata days special. The knowledge and expertise you share with our young people is invaluable.
