The JA Entrepreneurship Summit is an intensive, virtual “startup boot camp” where high school students are challenged to design ready-to-launch, socially-conscious businesses. Over the course of five days, students utilize technology to brainstorm and collaborate with peers, access mini-seminars and workshops, and learn from business leaders and trained volunteer mentors. The experience culminates in a pitch competition to a panel of esteemed business leaders.

Meet the Pitch Competition judges:
• Camille Blair – Capital One
• Lisa Friedlander – Shulman Rogers
• Trang Sabel – Salesforce
• Clifford Yee – Northern Virginia Family Service
• Andy Louis-Charles – Custom ink
• Dan Maguire – TeraThink

Many thanks to Challenge Partner, Custom Ink, and Pitch Presentation & Award Sponsor, State Farm, for making the 2020 JA Entrepreneurship Summit possible.
