Junior Achievement of Armenia Students Take Part in
Junior Achievement Trade Fair in Romania
`Belts,' the student company of Etchmiatzin School Number 4,
represented Armenia's
Junior Achievement Program at the annual JA-YE European Student Trade Fair
from April 29 to March 1 at the capital of Romania. More than 76 companies
from 30 European countries took part in the extravaganza - the annual
competition that brings together the best of student companies to
display their products. The event also gives the young entrepreneurs
an opportunity to market their goods in a European city. Throughout
the year, the students learn the theory of economics and apply their
knowledge in creating student business companies. To this end, they
conduct marketing research, issue stock to raise capital, manufacture
the product, and develop marketing strategies.
The students of Etchmiatzin School had created a unique product - a
belt made of wooden beads that could also be used as a massage
belt. The product survived a rigorous national competition in Armenia
and was chosen to represent the country internationally.
`We were so proud to
have been chosen to participate in this prestigious event. We had
worked very hard on establishing our business and were very happy to
be rewarded for all of our work,' said Anoush Meykhanajyan, one of the
student representatives.
Anna Hovhannisyan, the designer of the product added, `I learned a lot
from the experience. It is one thing to watch other people conduct
business; it is another to actively do it. Our trip was so
wonderful. We got to learn much from other student companies and our
experiences in selling our product. We met wonderful people form all
over the world and we made so many friends. We also very much enjoyed
learning about Romania and its culture.'
Armine K. Hovannisian, Executive Director of Junior Achievement of
Armenia, accompanied the students on their five-day trip. `This is the
third year that we are taking part in this very important event. We
were honored that our nation's diplomatic representatives attended the
trade fair and encouraged our students with their presence. We are
also grateful to Cynthia Tusan, who made it possible for our students
to continue taking part in this important event. I think the
experience is priceless for those involved.'
