On Thursday, 26th March, 2026, the Rotaract Club of Peterborough organized and hosted its "Entrepreneur Thursdays Market", an exciting market event specifically designed for student entrepreneurs.

This market showcased the innovative spirit and entrepreneurial talent of students from Trent University, providing them with a unique platform to display their creativity and business ventures. The event featured a diverse array of 10 businesses, each owned and operated by ambitious students who were eager to share their products and services with their peers. Among the businesses showcased were a variety of offerings, from handmade crafts, desserts and cultural foods to tech innovations and hair & beauty services.
The Entrepreneur Thursdays Market served not only as a marketplace but also as a dynamic networking opportunity for the student entrepreneurs. Participants were able to engage directly with potential customers, allowing them to promote their businesses effectively while also gaining invaluable feedback. Each student entrepreneur brought their unique flair and passion to the event, creating a rich tapestry of entrepreneurial endeavors.


In addition to selling products, the event provided a platform for students to gain new clientele and build lasting relationships within the community. Many attendees were not only interested in purchasing items but were also keen on learning more about the stories behind the businesses, fostering a sense of connection and support for local student initiatives.


The Rotaract Club of Peterborough is committed to economic and community development. This is why we are so excited about continuing this program for student entrepreneurs. We hope that the markets create an environment where students feel empowered and motivated to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams! We look forward to seeing everyone out to support the student entrepreneurs at our next Market!
