INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Sixty middle and high school students participated Tuesday in the Indiana Black Expo Youth Entrepreneur Series, where they learned about starting and building their own businesses.
The event featured workshops led by five different entrepreneurs, providing students with insights into what it takes to launch and grow a business.

The IBX Youth Entrepreneur Series will continue on Wednesday at the Indiana Convention Center in downtown Indianapolis. Students will have the opportunity to pitch their business ideas to a panel of judges for feedback.
