BUILD is a high school entrepreneurship program taught in underresourced schools setting the foundation for students to have an entrepreneurial mindset and succeed in high school and beyond. Students learn basics on how to run their own business in addition to connecting with professionals from the community to expand their network.
The Business Plan Competition is an opportunity for Year 1 BUILD students to showcase their businesses and what they've learned over the course of the year to a panel of judges who, in each round, will offer students encouragement, questions, and feedback. Judges will listen to brief presentations and then ask students questions.
