Project description

Klara opened the first branch with her own funds and took out a loan from a bank to open the second branch, which she successfully repaid within two years. Her first kindergarten is located in her own premises and the premises for the second branch and for the school are rented. Klara started with 10 children in 2015 and now has a total of 150 children in its facilities.

Her kindergarten is very well equipped and the teachers are constantly undergoing further training. In the future, Klara plans to build its own building with comfortable facilities for 200 children. There will be a gymnasium, an assembly hall and a canteen. The children will not only learn, but also take part in a range of activities, such as art, IT software, tourism and travel. There is no seasonality in the kindergarten, whereas the school has a three-month summer vacation. Klara plans to organize a summer camp during this time.

Klara has already attended her first BPN seminars and was very enthusiastic about them. She is already looking forward to the marketing seminar. By participating in the BPN program, she wants to expand her entrepreneurial and business management skills and thus promote the successful development of her company.
