		About the Awards

The IYCE is a unique international competition held every year in London since 2005.

It rewards the most talented young entrepreneurs from developing countries --people who connect creative talents to consumers and empower communities to develop the economic potential of the creative sectors.

If you run a business in the creative sector, or work in one, this is your chance to be Indonesia’s next international champion.

You can use the prize money for training in UK, develop projects with UK partners, or launch your business in UK.
