Description
The MBL will be launching its youth entrepreneurship club for middle and high school students interested in Entrepreneurship and pursuing a career in the business world. We are looking for students who want to become part of our initiatives and are passionate about business. Our youth programs provide real world experience for young entrepreneurs and students. We now offer a youth membership to students attracted to the fast paced world of business called MBL Junior Entrepreneur. Meetings are held bi-monthly on Saturdays (Oct, Dec, Feb, April and June).
Our Guest Speaker, Mr. Elliot Eddie
Mr. Elliot Eddie, creator of The Entreprenuer Game, a board game that is used as an educational tool that encompasses information about running a business to help both children and adults learn to start a business. The game- which was designed for children 12 and older-takes players on entreprenurial journey. You start off as the CEO of your own company and throughout the game you go through stages of budgeting, marketing, investing and negotiating. The goal is to evade going bankrupt. The winner of the game is the individual who has the most assets.
Elliot Eddie has won over five state and two international public speaking awards. He was also one of the top 10 finalists in Toastmasters International's World Championship of Public Speaking Contest. Mr Elliot is currently managing superior tax service, a tax preparation company, and film and television producer for DM Media Inc. which is also a licensed Primerica agent.
