Think Like an Entrepreneur Day @ UCO offers high school students an exciting opportunity to develop essential entrepreneurial skills that go beyond starting a business. This engaging program is designed to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit while fostering a problem-solving mindset that students can apply in their schools, communities, and future careers.
Participants will work in teams of four, guided by a UCO College of Business student mentor, to tackle a real-world business challenge. Teams will present their innovative solutions to a panel of esteemed judges, competing for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards, including school banners, medals, and the ultimate prize—bragging rights!
Throughout the day, students will build leadership skills, refine their personal branding, and enhance their resumes, gaining practical knowledge they can carry forward into any path they choose. Whether they aspire to be entrepreneurs or simply want to think like one, this day will empower students to become creative problem-solvers and future leaders in every aspect of life.
