Student competitions

At Future Bound by Junior Achievement, students put their skills to the test through four dynamic competitions that showcase innovation, strategy, and leadership.

  • JA Company of the Year celebrates student-led businesses that demonstrate creativity, impact, and entrepreneurial spirit.
  • JA Social Innovation Challenge empowers students to design solutions that address real-world social issues, combining purpose with profit.
  • JA Titan Challenge simulates the role of a CEO, pushing students to make high- stakes decisions in a competitive business environment.
  • JA Stock Market Challenge invites students to navigate the fast-paced world of finance as they manage virtual portfolios in a live trading simulation.

Together, these competitions represent the future of business, innovation, and the next generation of changemakers.
