Nestlé has today launched its Youth Entrepreneurship Platform (YEP), a new digital platform for young innovators and entrepreneurs who want to learn new skills, test an idea or grow their businesses, in areas ranging from food science and technology to the development of products and services.
The world’s biggest food manufacturer stated that YEP brings together all of its existing innovation initiatives and programs in one place. The platform gives young innovators access to The Nestlé Entrepreneurship Academy plus dedicated programs to grow knowledge, learn new skills and gain experience. It also offers customised content and resources from specific geographies.
