Inspirational ideas from the entrepreneurs of tomorrow

Jun 14, 2023

At Eco, we're all about ideas, innovation and thinking ahead - and it’s great to see that the next generation is just the same.

Our MD Eddie Black and Group Opportunity Strategist Gary Robertson were recently invited to St Andrew’s RC Primary School in Dumfries where P7 pupils presented their innovative ideas for a sustainable future to us.


The initiative was part of a class project focused on the circular economy where youngsters were challenged to come up with a sustainable solution to an existing environmental issue and market it as a potential business.

We were so impressed with the students’ out of the box thinking, detailed levels of research and the passion with which they presented their ideas.


A huge congratulations to all the pupils who took part in the project. We were proud to be asked to be involved - and inspired by your forward thinking ideas and vision.
