ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS A LIFESKILL​.

CoCoon Foundation’s journey began in 2017, when our co-founders recognized the need for secondary students to have access to entrepreneurship education.

Through education, we embarked on a mission to empower the next generation with entrepreneur sharings, application of design thinking, and collaboration with corporate innovators. We hope students can be inspired by stories, empowered to tackle opportunities and connected with future of work experiences.

We also pride ourselves our internship programmes, which hope to inspire students to explore different possibilities in their own future career paths by providing workshops, interview clinics and an opportunity to intern in a startup environment. To date, our programmes have reached over 30,500 students, 220 startups and corporate organisations and matched 220 internship placements.

 we EQUIP YOUNG PEOPLE WITH ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT TO BE FUTURE OF WORK READY. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? 

Entrepreneurship is when you turn ideas into action that generate value for others.

At CoCoon Foundation, we believe entrepreneurship is a lifeskill. So we enable youth to develop their entrepreneurial mindset and networks, fostering leaders who can innovate a sustainable future.

We teach entrepreneurship based on the European Entrepreneurship Competence Framework (Entrecomp). For teaching and learning purposes, we have paired each of these 15 competences to a cute animal! They are the building blocks of an entrepreneurial mindset that we cultivate through workshops, camps, and internships.
