The national competition of best pupil`s companies will be held in Belgrade from May 19-21, 2024, and it has been supported by the Ministry of Economy. The aim is for the pupils to get acquainted with the principles of entrepreneurship and to develop their own entrepreneurship enterprises through the cultivation of products, establishment of company and its termination.
The pupil`s company from Ljig “Teen Needs” cultivated a product “Eins Zwei & Dry” consisting of fluids (distilled water, alcohol, glycerol and etheric oil) and gloves, and it serves for the maintenance of hygiene. One part of the glove serves to apply the fluid and clean part of the body and another serves to wipe it clean or dry it.
