  • Learning about the financial decisions that go into pricing and running a business
  • Understanding the importance of philanthropy
  • Learning business etiquette and presentation
  • How to market your business or product
  • Hear from real local entrepreneurs about their own experiences running a business

The five day camp will culminate with the students presenting their original business plans to a panel of judges. Cash prizes will be awarded. Space is very limited. Students have a choice of attending one of three sessions: July 11 - 15 at Benedict College; July 18 - 22 at Benedict College; or July 25 - 29 at Midlands Technical College - Airport Campus.
