MiRyze
〜 A Business Competition by High School Students, for High School Students 〜
01. What It Is
The Winter High School Business Contest is a co-hosted initiative by MiRyze and Komuro Consulting, created by high school students, for high school students. It brings together young people from diverse backgrounds across borders and languages to practice real-world entrepreneurship: generating ideas, building models, and executing presentations. Because MiRyze is founded by returnee students and international-experienced youth, the contest fully supports submissions and presentations in multiple languages — Japanese, English, Chinese, French, and more — so language is never a barrier to sharing your vision.
02. Theme
Theme: Business × High School Student Support
This year’s theme is not just a prompt — it’s a call to action. We invite teams to design business solutions that support high school students: improving wellbeing, access, opportunity, community, learning, or everyday life for peers. Your solution can be a product, service, community initiative, platform, educational program, event design, or any creative format that helps high school students live better, learn better, and connect better. Start from the student perspective; design with impact.
