The program combines knowledge from leading international executive business schools with practical experience and advice from EY. This incomparable combination offers a unique opportunity to benefit personally from the experience of exceptional business personalities and peers from around the world. The highly enjoyable activities give young adults the chance to pursue their interests and give voice to their own needs for the future.
Individual goals and personalities as well as the nature and culture of family businesses, sometimes require flexible training content and delivery.

Moreover, being an offshoot of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™ – the world’s most prestigious business award – the EY NextGen Club Award is a platform for EY NextGen Club members to showcase their entrepreneurial endeavors.
