The Entrepreneurship Education Consortium will hold its third annual Entrepreneurship Immersion Week Aug. 9-14 at Kent State University. 

EIW is an intense, one-week academic experience in which 35 students from Northeast Ohio colleges and universities are challenged to create the best business concept.

Teams from Ashland University, Baldwin-Wallace College, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland State University, John Carroll University, Kent State University and The University of Akron will participate. 

Each team will create a business concept, which will be judged by an outside panel of entrepreneurs. 

While living in residence halls, students will attend two academic sessions per day on topics such as Developing a Business Idea, Creativity and Innovation and Finance and Marketing. 

Students also will be provided with networking opportunities and presentations by prominent northeast Ohio entrepreneurs. 

The EEC has partnered with the Burton D. Morgan Foundation to make this program possible.

Additional sponsors include Cleveland Clinic Innovations, Goldstein Caldwell and Associates, Magnet and the Youngstown Business Incubator.
