Ivy Education Group (IEG) is not your everyday educational organization. We provide students with financial challenges a chance to an equal opportunity to participate in all of our programs. At IEG, we strive to make a difference in this world via education. We understand there are numerous so-called "short-term top university programs", where in fact, they are more of a "short-term vacation tour". We at IEG, only develop official programs that are both challenging and rewarding directly with top universities. We don't believe grades should be the only indicator on whether you could attend these programs, but more on whether a student has the "passion to learn and excel". Therefore, if you are someone who has a lot of passion to learn and excel, we welcome you to apply to one of our programs!

What happens when we let students take the lead? 🌟

Why should students experience MEC?

We asked Dr. Anas Chalah, Assistant Dean at Harvard SEAS, why he recommends students participate in the Model Entrepreneur® Competition.

His perspective goes beyond simply winning a competition.

🎥 Hear directly from a Harvard educator on why MEC can be a meaningful experience for the next generation of innovators and entrepreneurs.

For students who want to do more than learn about entrepreneurship, MEC gives them the opportunity to actually experience it.

“Godmother of Silicon Valley” Esther Wojcicki says entrepreneurship is “the number one goal for the 21st century.”

That belief is also at the heart of MEC.

More than a competition, MEC challenges students to think independently, solve real problems, and experience entrepreneurship through action.

🎥 Hear why she believes entrepreneurship matters for the next generation, and what makes MEC different.

True innovation isn’t about having a perfect idea. It’s about developing the ability to solve real-world problems, adapt, and keep learning.

Returning for his second year as a judge at the MEC Global Finals, Harvard SEAS Assistant Dean Dr. Anas shared why students should embrace feedback, pivot their ideas, and protect their freedom to imagine without limits. At MEC, young entrepreneurs don’t simply present business plans; they learn to think critically, exchange ideas across cultures, and turn creativity into action.

The goal is not a perfect plan, but the confidence and skills to keep innovating.

Using music as the coaching language for creative entrepreneurship.

When it comes to youth entrepreneurship, joining a pitch competition may feel out of reach for some students. The ambition is there. They simply need a different path to explore.

Here’s an opportunity worth discovering: a pre-collegiate summer camp led by BerkleeICE, which has partnered with IEG since its inception over 10 years ago.

“...Our summer program will take students through the process of thinking like an entrepreneur by using creativity as a catalyst for innovation and provide the tools they need to innovate in the future,” said Panos Panay, founder of BerkleeICE and current President of the Recording Academy/GRAMMY Awards®.

This summer, join a journey that will inspire you to compose your own future and see the world of business through a new lens.
