This year’s Global Entrepreneurship Week is only a little more than a month away. Over 70 countries around the world will be participating. During the week of November 17 – 23, 2008, partner organizations will conduct a range of activities – from simple speeches to comprehensive competitions – designed to inspire, connect, inform, mentor and engage the next generation of entrepreneurs.

The premiere event in the Kansas City area related to Entrepreneurship Week is the SHBC Entrepreneurial Expo. The SHBC Expo will be held November 19, 2008 from 11:00 a.m.—7:00 p.m. at the K-State Extension office, 11811 S. Sunset Drive, Olathe, KS.

If you are located in the KC area, make sure to stop by and visit the Expo. There are still some booths and other advertising opportunities available. For more information, including a list of the scheduled speakers, visit the SHBC Expo web site.
