Real world business skills are very important, but how can we teach them to students in an engaging and fun manner? Enter Cashtivity, a Sydney Founder Institute Graduate, a simple online tool for students to experience and learn business.
Cashtivity provides an easy-to-use digital format of the business-design framework. Teachers need not have any expertise in business because Cashtivity is project based and natural. Cashtivity simplifies and supports students through the design process from ideas through to business launch. In providing the tools and framework, students can focus on the creative and practical components involved in building their own business.
Cashtivity has been gaining increasing traction since their public beta launch in April this year. They have grown across 22 US states as well as 5 other countries, namely Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Costa Rica and Portugal.
The biggest trends have been in the wide distribution of teachers across the US from the public, private and parochial schools, along with the concentration of teachers at leading private/public schools in Victoria, Australia.
With these positive trends, it looks like Cashtivity is on the rise to become a bigger force in bringing entrepreneurship to the classroom.
Cashtivity graduated from the Founder Institute in Sydney in 2013.
