Molecule 2Market™ Work Experience Programme Summer 2026

Molecule 2Market™
Work Experience Programme
Summer 2026

From 13th July 2026, The 2M Group of Companies proudly hosted the Molecule 2Market™ work experience programme at 2M House. This week-long initiative reflects one of 2M’s core values: enabling young people to access careers in our industry, regardless of their background or prior experience.

About the programme

The programme offered an exciting week of practical, interactive activities for young people aged 15 to 19, giving students valuable insight into the worlds of science, business, and innovation through real-life experiences and allowing them to work as a team.

Throughout the week, participants had the opportunity to learn about how 2M drives sustainability and innovation across the industry.

Students also met professionals from a range of departments, gaining first-hand insight into their roles, asking questions, and discovering the diverse career opportunities available within science and business.
 
To round off the programme, students worked in teams to develop, brand, and market their own product concept before presenting it at the Molecule 2Market™ Innovation Showcase.
Each team pitched their idea to a panel of judges, whilst parents and our industry colleagues were also present, demonstrating not only their creativity and innovation but also the collaboration, problem-solving, teamwork and presentation skills they had developed throughout the week.
 
The showcase brought together everything the students had learned within the week, giving students the opportunity to apply their knowledge and in a real-world business scenario.

A special thanks

A special thanks to our incredible STEM Ambassadors, who generously dedicated their time, knowledge, and experience to inspire and support the students throughout the week and everybody else involved.
