Young people stood inside Staples in Cobourg this week, showing off their talents. They are part of the Youth Entrepreneurship  Showcase, which displays the various businesses they ran over the summer.
In this interview, you will learn about two programs the Business and Entrepreneurship Centre Northumberland runs for young people. The first is the Summer Company, which gives micro-grants to high school and university students. Plus, you will discover the My Future My Career program, where children ages eight to 14 can get up to $500 to create their own business.
Wait till you hear about the variety of enterprises. It is a long way from having a lemonade stand.
