St Paul’s Teams Excel at Young Enterprise Trade Fair

St Paul’s sent a record seven teams of Lower Eighths (including two joint SPS/SPGS teams) to the annual Young Enterprise pan-London trade fair today. The event brings together students from schools across the city, giving them the opportunity to sell products they have been developing intensively since September.

The St Paul’s teams showcased a variety of innovative products, ranging from oil-cleaning cloths and diaries with compostable pages to mental health and language-learning card games. They performed exceptionally well, collectively generating over £1,500 in revenue in a highly competitive market.

Canopy, a 3D-printed self-watering plant pot company led by Ronit Mendonca MD and mentored by Dr. McDonnell and volunteer business advisor Jo Russell, took the top prize for Best Overall Trade Stand, beating 53 other schools in the process.

Well done to all the teams who took part!
