Main Street Ventures, a Cincinnati-based entrepreneur support organization, announced that its Inventure Entrepreneurship Academy for high school students will return for the fourth consecutive year.
The program provides a hands-on experience for high school students interested in entrepreneurship. The five-day experience will take place June 2-6 at the 1819 Innovation Hub at the University of Cincinnati.
Startup leaders, university students, and business experts will share their knowledge and experiences with the students to help them build upon their business ideas.
“The Inventure Entrepreneurship Academy is another way we’re inspiring and empowering the next generation of business leaders,” Main Street Ventures Executive Director Sean Parker said. “Launching and growing a business is no small feat, but by connecting students with experienced local entrepreneurs, we’re helping them build a strong foundation to turn their ideas into successful ventures. And if we can encourage them to grow those businesses here, we’re further strengthening our community’s economic outlook.”
Online registration is now available at mainstventures.org/inventure. Any high school student located in Butler, Clermont, and Hamilton counties in Ohio, Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties in Kentucky and Dearborn County in Indiana are eligible to register.
Inventure Entrepreneurship Academy is $20 for all participants who are accepted. Applications close on March 31.
