We spent the day networking with CEO programs from Effingham, Clay, Cumberland, and Jasper counties.

We started with Chris Egleston from the Midland Institute for Entrepreneurship, who helped students get ready for their trade show next week. He kept it engaging (and memorable) by tying in a little magic. 🪄

After that, students grouped up by their products and services to talk through their plans and get feedback from others doing similar things.

If you want to see these ideas come to life, join us at our Trade Show on April 22 from 5–7 PM at Vandalia Community High School.
