Kidpreneurs
Marketplace
Where Kids Ideas
Become Real Businesses.
Business Masterclasses + One-Day Youth Marketplace
The Kidpreneurs Business Masterclasses & Marketplace are back this fall! After an incredible marketplace last school year, we're excited to welcome a new cohort of young entrepreneurs to learn, create, build, and share their businesses with the community.
Hosted by Ellemercito Learning Community & Connect.Ed Curiosity

it into something real — while developing the confidence, creativity, communication, and financial skills to bring it to life.

Market
