This achievement is marked through a series of competition events where they proudly present the results of their year in business.

Young Enterprise Companies appear before independent panels of judges from the business and education communities who take a view as to how well they have performed against the Young Enterprise criteria, compared to the other companies at each stage

The structure of the competition judging process varies slightly in the early stages of the competition, but at Regional and National levels the student companies are judged through the following elements:
