The purpose of the Entrepreneurship Promotion Project is to provide an opportunity for the chapter representatives to demonstrate the skills needed in planning, organizing, implementing and evaluating a campaign to educate chapter members and the general public or an organized group about the opportunities available for becoming an entrepreneur. The Entrepreneurship Promotion Project is a chapter project that develops the economic and marketing skills necessary to be successful in a global economy. After learning the economic principles associated with entrepreneurship, chapter members will utilize their marketing skills to communicate the benefits of entrepreneurship to others.
Entrepreneurship Promotion Project is a team event consisting of 1 to 3 students.
