A Junior Enterprise - also called JE - is a local non-profit consultancy organization entirely managed by university students. Related to their fields of studies the students offers consulting services to the market (companies, public authorities or business founders). Students experience unique learning opportunities by doing professional project work on the one side and managing small to medium sized enterprises on the other. By doing this students add practical experience to their theoretical skills.

In the UK, the national Confederation of Junior Enterprises - JADE UK - has a regulatory role among the different JEs. In France it is in charged of the "Junior Entreprise" label, registered at the French National Institute for Intellectual Property (INPI).
