Part of NEORIS' Corporate Social Responsibility initiative, the "JA Job Shadow" Day seeks to expose students to careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) as they explore their own entrepreneurial ideas. Launched in 2010, NEOfrontiers Day will take place on November 18 as NEORIS employees share their work day with high school students at its offices worldwide. The JA Job Shadow program this year will host a diverse group of high school students at NEORIS offices in Sao Paulo, Monterrey, Madrid and Miami. Junior Achievement (JA) is the official host for the 7th Global Entrepreneurship Week in Mexico and Brazil. Founded in 2008, Global Entrepreneurship Week has experienced unprecedented growth and currently includes more than 25,000 events, activities and competitions that take place simultaneously in the span of one week.

Students participating in NEOfrontiers Day around the globe will connect via video conference to hear messages from members of the NEORIS senior management team in English, Spanish and Portuguese, including NEORIS CEO Claudio Muruzabal. Students will get insights into how a global enterprise embraces diversity by overcoming time zone, language and culture challenges in order to collaborate on projects around the world.
