ABOUT THE YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS CONSORTIUM The Young Entrepreneurs Consortium is a partnership among 12 school districts, three career and technical centers, four higher education institutions, and 12 business and community partners in a 12-county service area from Northeast to Southeast Ohio. With the need to increase the flow of young entrepreneurs to grow local economies from Northeast to Southeast Ohio, it is essential to expose students to areas of growth and opportunity and ensure they are on a future pathway to be successful. As a result, we are leading a multi-year initiative to create an innovative model for community engagement and increasing the flow of young entrepreneurs in Ohio.
