“Getting real-life experience is huge because I don’t think every university offers that.” — Keilon Hunter
Students experience a realistic, agency-like atmosphere as they work with multiple teammates on a promotional campaign plan for an actual client. The competing teams conduct research, analyze the data, devise a strategy, formulate tactics, and ultimately make a formal presentation of their plan to the client.
Each spring semester, college students, high school students, and community members present their business ideas in a competitive setting. The event provides students and entrepreneurs the opportunity to present ideas to professionals, small business owners and potential investors. It also allows students to network with business professionals and gain presentation experience.
