Braggonomics

Who is Braggonomics?

Braggonomics is the alter-ego of Cameron Bragg. You may see him referred to as Econ Cat in some of the documents shared on this website.

Yes, he loves Economics. But he also loves the idea of young people starting businesses and taking on the big challenges of our world. He believes that real education happens outside of the classroom, and as much as possible students should be sent in to the real world to develop the creative, collaborative and critical thinking skills they will need in their future careers.

Entrepreneurship education is not only about inspiring young entrepreneurs - the skills and attitudes developed in the program will help students in all aspects of their lives: personal, family, professional, social and community.

Ideas, Inspiration, Support & Credits

This site is the product of a year's work focused on creating an entrepreneurship program for teenagers in a high school setting. Our goal has been to get students "out of the classroom" and into the real world.

Thanks

A special thanks to Riccardo Donadon and H-Farm (h-farm.com) for the opportunity, through H-International School, to create the program and deliver it. A grand vision for the way education should be, it's been a privilege to have been a part of helping to progress this dream.
