About the competition

THERE IS A TALENT IN ECONOMISTS, JUST TO SHOW IT

The Prague University of Economics and Business has thousands of students, graduates and teachers. Among them are successful athletes, dancers, musicians, comedians and others. The aim of this competition is to appreciate the talent that remains somewhat in the background compared to the focus of the university. Show that economists are capable in other fields as well. Show off your talent in Lucerna in front of many people. Thanks to important partners who donated valuable prizes to the competition, the whole competition is even more attractive.

Enter the competition, which will take place at the Prague University of Economics and Business. The exhibition will traditionally take place at the Representative Ball VŠE in Lucerna.

It is definitely worth participating in the competition, even if you do not win, you have interesting opportunities. Participants in the competition have the opportunity to perform at major events throughout the year.
