The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!) is a program designed to teach middle and high school students the fundamentals of starting and running a business. Through hands-on learning, students develop skills in areas such as business planning, marketing, and financial management. The program culminates in a pitch competition where students present their business ideas to a panel of judges. YEA! aims to inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs by providing mentorship and resources. Participants have the opportunity to connect with local business leaders and gain real-world experience, fostering creativity and innovation in young minds.
