COMMERICAL TRADING EVENTS Commercial Trading Events are held in over 20 countries around the world and provide an opportunity for trainees to exhibit and market the products and services of their Practice Enterprise in a competitive marketplace to local and international colleagues. These events include Intensive Trading Events and Practice Enterprise Trade Fairs. From online and in-person events, smaller regional events to large international fairs with over 200 exhibitors, Commercial Trading Events allow trainees to put the marketing, communications, negotiations and global business skills they have leaned to the test. Visit one of our events! Check out our updated Agenda of Commercial Trading Events.

ENTERPRISE COMPETITIONS The Enterprise Competitions focus on different aspects of the operations of the Practice Enterprise and its departments. They are organized to support trainers and trainees of the Worldwide Practice Enterprise Network. The Enterprise Competitions vary from Sales Pitches, to Business and Marketing Plan Competitions. These help to test and evaluate different skill sets from critical thinking, problem-solving and creativity to leardership, resilience and sustainability. Trainees may find these competencies especially important for their entry into the real business world. Please check the Events Agenda for all upcoming Enterprise Competitions.

SOCIAL MEDIA EVENTS The Social Media Events are interactive and engaging events created for trainees of PEN Worldwide. These events are designed for trainees to test their creative design skills and their knowledge of the different social media channels – including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn. Based on different requirements (time frame, type of post, language) and the assessment criteria (creativity and quality of the design and post itself, the number of likes and amount of shares) will all be evaluated. We differentiate between Social Media Competitions which focus more on how to work with Social Media tools and Highlight Events that "highlight" specific topics and how to market these, as for example diversity. Stay up-to-date with all upcoming events, by following the PEN Worldwide Social Media channels and #PENWorldwide and #PracticeEnterprise.
