Students Showcase Their Businesses in Battle Creek

The event, hosted and coordinated by Battle Creek's Generation E Institute, features businesses inspired, started and run by students between the ages of 8 and 26. The young entrepreneurs have been exposed to the institute's program which fosters entrepreneurial traits - and those that help make them employable.
