Description

Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!). For grades 6-12. Lubbock Chamber of Commerce.

Start as a Student, Finish as a CEO!

YEA! Lubbock is a Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!) program for students in grades 6-12.

YEA! is a 30-week program that guides middle and high school students through launching and running their own real businesses or social movements.

The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!) is a groundbreaking and exciting year long class that transforms middle and high school students into real, confident entrepreneurs. Throughout the class, students develop business ideas, write business plans, conduct market research, pitch their plans to a panel of investors, and actually launch and run their own real, legal, fully formed companies and social movements.

Complete with dynamic guest speakers from the local business community and exciting behind-the-scenes trips to local companies, the fun, projects-based YEA! approach empowers students to take charge of their futures in a profound way.

Founded in 2004 at the University of Rochester with support from the Kauffman Foundation, the Young Entrepreneurs Academy today serves thousands of students in communities across America.
