ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAM
Teaching Youth the Mindset of an Entrepreneur
A complimentary 12-week program that will teach high school students how to build a business, create a prototype and present it to a panel of experts in a shark-tank format for a chance to win a cash prize (to launch their business) and a 2-month business mentorship to take their idea to the next level.
Applications are now closed for 2023 Entrepreneurship Competition. The applications for 2024 Entrepreneurship Competition will open in November 2023.
