Written by Ashwika Koppisetti

It is the end of Business For Youth’s 3-week AI x Business Online Youth Program. The program brought together 132 students from 30 countries to learn how modern companies operate, how leaders make decisions, and how AI is transforming business strategy through expert sessions, workshops, case studies, and projects.

In Week 1, students explored The Leader’s View of Business, learning how companies operate behind the scenes. They thought like executives to understand decision-making, team dynamics, and ethical leadership, while analyzing how businesses grow and stay competitive.

In Week 2, the focus shifted to AI as a Leadership Tool. Students examined AI’s role in marketing, finance, and strategy, along with its ethical implications. Through hands-on workshops, they explored how AI works and developed problem-solving skills.

In Week 3, students learned to think like founders, identifying real-world problems and building business models. They created venture ideas integrating AI while strengthening their communication and pitching skills.

The program concluded with students presenting their business ideas, showcasing creativity, leadership, and innovation. Overall, participants developed stronger leadership, critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, gaining confidence in applying AI and business concepts in real-world contexts.
