Young Entrepreneur Cram Session
Are you a recent grad with a great business idea, but have no idea how to get started? Or a young entrepreneur looking to take your business to the next level?
On Wednesday, June 24 at noon PDT (California time) Intuit will be hosting a “Young Entrepreneur Cram Session.” In this one-hour online event, you will hear from other young entrepreneurs on how they started their businesses, and what challenges they faced and how they overcame them. You will also be able to ask questions and share your own advice.
Featured panelists include:
- Michael Adams, who founded Eddie’s Energy Bars based in Richmond, VT. Eddie’s makes all natural, no preservative energy bars that are locally homemade and community supported. The company was recently named one of Entrepreneur Magazine’s 100 Companies to Watch.
- Melissa Baswell, owner of Mountains of the Moon, a Chicago-based sustainable design and apparel organization aimed at creating chic, high-quality eco-friendly clothing. Melissa was also one of the Intuit Small Business United Grant Competition winners.
- Kavin Stewart, co-founder and CEO of LOLapps, a provider of easy-to-use tools that allow anyone to create and customize applications on social networks.
This exclusive event is open to the first 100 who register, so sign up here now.
If you aren’t able to attend the Cram Session, no worries. You can follow the event using the hashtag #YECram on Twitter, or look for updates on the Small Business United Blog.
It’s amazing the way even young entrepreneurs want to help others of all ages to succeed. Kid’s are evolving faster these days, and age doesn’t matter anymore as the playing field has been leveled with today’s technology. All that really counts is Knowledge, the more knowledge you have the more power.
The Use of Knowledge is Power.
Thank you Anita,for sharing the informations
Great initiative. I recently spoke to more than 100 “summer entrepreneurs” (age 15 – 20) about social media and personal branding. The other speakers had great talks on guerilla marketing, business etiquette and social networking “in real life”. You could read about the concept in my blog post, Summer Entrepreneur. (Click on “Martin Lindeskog” Says:)
Sorry for typo. It should be guerrilla marketing. By the way: I like the name of Intuit’s site: Small Business Town Hall!
Missed the “Cram Session” but hope to hear more of how it went. Young entrpreneurs tend to have fresh ideas that sometimes we could all learn from.
