MINI TITANS LTD

What MINI TITANS LTD does

Mini Titans Ltd is a Calgary-based, privately held non-profit organization founded in 2022 by Mike Mammel that runs in-person youth entrepreneurship camps for children aged approximately 6-14. Its core product is a five-day camp, delivered at multiple Calgary community centers across summer and spring break sessions, in which children form teams to design, price, pitch, and sell real products at community markets, keep the cash they earn, and donate a portion of proceeds to charity. The program combines entrepreneurship skills (product creation, pricing, negotiation) with financial literacy and life skills (public speaking, leadership, resilience). Parents pay a flat $449 per child per week, with bursaries funded by corporate sponsors; camp operations are supported by roughly 10 local business sponsors across tiered packages ($5,000, $2,500, $1,000, $449) and community-level partnerships with Rotary 5360 and venue partners.

The organization's underlying technology is intentionally light: a WordPress-based website with event ticketing plugins for registration, Stripe for payments, and Zoom for the optional pre-market sales training add-on. There is no proprietary software, no app, no API, and no AI integration; the product's value is delivered through in-person facilitation at community center venues. The team is small (founder Mike Mammel plus organizer Adrianna and supporting volunteers), and the operating geography is constrained to Calgary, Alberta, with no disclosed expansion beyond that single market.

Mini Titans is funded entirely through camp fees, corporate sponsorships, and donations, with no institutional investors, no parent company, and no funding rounds disclosed. Revenue figures are not publicly reported. Distribution is direct-to-family via the website and at physical community center venues, with customer acquisition driven by earned media (CTV News, Global News, Western Standard), word-of-mouth, and organic social (Facebook, LinkedIn). The organization has produced measurable social impact ($686 raised for charities in 2025) but does not disclose headcount growth, formal financials, or forward capacity targets.

Expansion highlights4 records

Regional players

• Junior Achievement Southern Alberta: JA Southern Alberta delivers JA's youth entrepreneurship and financial literacy programs in the same Calgary region as Mini Titans, including Company Program where students run real student-run businesses. Most directly comparable on geography and mission, competing for the same Calgary-area school partnerships, sponsors, and parent audience.

Direct peers

• BizWorld Foundation: BizWorld Foundation runs curriculum-based programs that teach kids ages 8-12 entrepreneurship and financial literacy through hands-on activities including running simulated businesses. The age range overlap with Mini Titans (6-14) and focus on real-money business simulations makes it a strong direct peer, though delivery is school-distribution-led rather than camp-led.
• Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE): NFTE is a non-profit that activates the entrepreneurial mindset in young people from under-resourced communities through in-school and after-school programming, including startup-pitch competitions. Directly comparable target audience (youth, financial literacy focus, often via partnerships) and non-profit structure, though delivery is classroom-based rather than experiential market-based like Mini Titans.
• Lemonade Day: Lemonade Day is a national community-wide program teaching kids how to start, own, and operate their own business — a lemonade stand — using a real-world entrepreneurship curriculum. Mini Titans' founding story is literally a lemonade stand, and the program structure (kids earn real money, give back to charity) closely mirrors Lemonade Day's framework, making it a direct peer in methodology and philosophy.
• Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA): YEA is a US-based program that transforms students ages 11-18 into real entrepreneurs through mentorship, business plan development, and a final investor pitch event. Directly comparable to Mini Titans' "kids launch real businesses and earn real money" framework but operates on a longer (year-long) timeline and serves older students, making it a direct conceptual peer with a different delivery format.

Broad incumbents

• Canadian Youth Business Foundation (CYBF) / Futurpreneur: Futurpreneur (formerly CYBF) supports young Canadian entrepreneurs ages 18-39 with mentorship, financing, and resources. Not a direct camp operator but a Canadian non-profit ecosystem player that overlaps with Mini Titans' entrepreneurship-education mission at an older age cohort, making it a thematic / adjacent peer.
• Junior Achievement (JA) Canada: JA Canada is the largest youth entrepreneurship and financial literacy education provider in Canada, operating JA programs in schools across the country including JA Southern Alberta in Calgary. Directly comparable mission to Mini Titans but operates at vastly larger scale, delivers classroom-based programming rather than experiential markets, and is structured as a non-profit — making it the closest mission-aligned peer.
• 4-H Canada: 4-H Canada is a national non-profit youth development organization offering hands-on programming across multiple disciplines (including entrepreneurship and business projects) for youth aged 6-21. The age overlap with Mini Titans and the experiential learning philosophy make it a broad-incumbent peer, though 4-H's programming extends well beyond entrepreneurship into agriculture and other areas.

Emerging players

• KiwiCo (Tinker Crate / Entrepreneurship Crates): KiwiCo offers hands-on STEAM and entrepreneurship subscription crates for kids, including a "Startup" themed crate where kids develop a business plan and pitch a product. While delivery is at-home kit rather than camp, the target audience (kids 6-14), entrepreneurship-learning outcome, and at-home experiential format make it an emerging-player peer competing for parent wallet share.
• Code Ninjas: Code Ninjas operates a franchise network of kids coding and STEM camps across North America, including Calgary-area locations, with a similar parent-demographic and camp-based enrichment model. Not a direct entrepreneurship peer but competes for the same after-school and summer-camp discretionary spend that Mini Titans targets.
