LAUNCH is holding their 6th annual Youth Entrepreneurship Competition on Sunday at 4 p.m. in UTC's Benwood Auditorium.

Students from Howard High School, Brainerd High School, Tyner Academy, East Ridge High School, and Red Bank High School have been working on their business plans this fall semester, and will be pitching their businesses to a panel of esteemed judges for three different prize packages.  

The Youth Entrepreneurship Competition serves as the finale of LAUNCH’s High School Entrepreneurship Program that trains students in the necessary steps to start a small business. Eighty-five percent of students who have participated in the High School Entrepreneurship Program expressed a desire to major in business or start a business once the program was completed. 

Admission is free and open to the public.
