Dreamity

• Camp Dreamity is a deeply experiential games-based program that aims to strengthen the entrepreneurial mindset.

• By defining entrepreneurship as a MINDSET, and not a skill-set or a business model, Dreamity aims to democratise and de-mystify the cultural perception of entrepreneurship, i.e. to make entrepreneurship accessible to all.

Camp Dreamity

• 5 Day gamified curriculum to share business principles and entrepreneurship mindsets.

• Debrief at the end of the day to recap the lessons learned.

• Bazzar at the end of bootcamp for practical experience.

• Ongoing activities after bootcamp to sustain interest.

Entrepreneurs wanted

• To build an Eco-system, it is important to bring the entrepreneurs together.

• At youth Hackathons for various industries, various mentors from different industries need to be involved.

• Mentors can benefit from meeting others from other industries and inspired by the creativity of the youths and their perspective.
