MARKET PLACE 2023

This year has been the 6th Edition of the EPJ MARKET PLACE. The companies created for the ocassion have been: Maclaermas, Oriently, Gea, Sunmobile, Healthy Ways y Flasback.

Here are some of the thoughts about preparing for the DAY:

MACLAERMAS
Since the beginning of the course, we have been working towards the exciting Marketplace day for our companies. It has been months of learning and preparation to get everything right. It has been a bit overwhelming with time, exams and assignments, but in the end we have managed to do our best and it has been successful.

GEA:

We started organizing the MarketPlace two weeks before the presentation. At the beginning we didn't know where to start, this is because we didn't have any past experience. It was very important working as a team and having good communication between all the members of the group. This was very important because we agreed on a lot of ideas. 

When we started with the projects at first we felt that we didn't have enough days to finish on time. But this didn't happen because we made small tasks every day and we finished on time.

On the last days, we made huge progress in the stand like: posters, activities and games, uniforms, we prepared sweets as the prices.

In conclusion, preparing the MarketPlace was very challenging but very rewarding. We worked as a team in every task and objective and it was difficult but we did it.

SUNMOBILE:

Regarding to the preparation of this Marketplace 2023, I could tell you that it was a great challenge for all lof us due to we prepared it in a short time. The reason of this is because the fair was pretended to be celebrated at the end of may, but the plans suddenly changed to a few weeks sooner. In the following days, after we were noticed about that change, each group worked on many original ideas to offer, for example, in the group of the company "GEA", they used some classes to create their game of roulette with questions, the group of "Healthy Ways" was making posters with domestic animals and in "Flashback", they managed their social networks to make themselves known at the fair. In general, all my classmates were pretty nervous due to they wanted to make a good impression in this event, but in the same time, we were all excited!

And here we have some thoughts after the DAY:

ORIENTLY:
The market place day was a funny one. We finished the last details and after that, the fair started. At first, we were nervous, because we didn’t know how it was going to be, but then, we had fun explaining our idea and playing the game with the people that were coming to our stand. Although it was a great day, we were also very tired because of standing all day. At the end, we had to clean up the mess we made, which by far was the worst part. To sum up, we consider it was a great experience and we hope that the school will continue doing it every year. 

FLASHBACK:

The Market Place has been a great experience and opportunity for us. We believe that it has been very enriching to improve our communication skills and develop our creativity.

We liked having the opportunity to meet people from the different classes in the school, and without a doubt, we really liked that they participated so much in the activities.

It was well worth having dedicated so many hours of work to the Market Place, we were very satisfied with the results obtained at the fair and we saw all our efforts rewarded.

Without a doubt, it is a unique experience that we will not forget.

What we can say, without a doubt, is that is was a GREAT SUCCESS!!
