One thing that makes the CEO program different is that students don’t just talk about business.
They actually run one.
Right now our students are preparing for their annual Shark Tank presentations, where they will pitch their companies to a panel of Sharks.
Each student has to present their business, answer questions, and defend their ideas just like a real entrepreneur would.
After hearing the pitches, the Sharks decide if any of the businesses earn investment dollars to help them grow.
Sometimes they do. Sometimes they don’t.
But every student walks away with something far more valuable… real experience presenting their business in front of people who do this for a living.
We’re excited to see what they bring to the table this year!
