The ‘Squeasy Peasey’ team from Ullapool High School has won the European Business Game (EBG). Their proposed reusable baby food pouch company impressed the judges at the international final in the Faroe Islands on Friday (5 July).

The team represented the whole of Scotland after winning the national final in April. The international final was a particularly tough competition with some great ideas from each of the participating countries.
It was the team’s innovative product and detailed proposal that saw them win the award. Their business pitch included market research, a three-year financial plan, and multi-lingual baby-food recipe videos on YouTube. The Czech Republic’s entry – a car wheel-changing device – came a very close second.
