FBM(Future Business Magnates) is a competition for all Year Eight students in County Durham. Students work together in a team of eight to create a real-life business. They do this by completing a number of different challenges based on developing their business skills. The students then complete a challenge and then are marked by some of the top business people in the North East. The final part of the competition is when students have to create a presentation that lasts for ten minutes and where the judges are told all about the product or service business that they have created. These are all based on a number of different themes, building a business team, Researching an idea, Turning an idea into a business, marketing your business, funding your business, and presenting your business. This years competition is all about ‘connecting County Durham’
