November is National Entrepreneurship Month!
From November 1st – 30th, we are celebrating entrepreneurs, change-makers, innovators, and job creators who are transforming their ideas into companies and building Career success, Entrepreneurial mindsets, and Opportunity with BUILD.
Together, we need to create a generation of young people who are prepared to thrive in an uncertain world equipped with the mindset and skills to adapt, pivot, invent, and reinvent within a digital, socially responsible society. That’s why, this National Entrepreneurship Month, we welcome all to join us in BUILDing Gen E – a diverse new generation of entrepreneurial leaders and changemakers. Our youth are emboldened — about 41 percent intend to become entrepreneurs, and nearly half believe they will invent something that will change the world!
"I am Gen E."
"As Social Impact Director for Golden State Warriors, I still think about the entrepreneurial skills I learned in 8th grade."
All students, just like BUILD Alumni Ay’Anna Moody, need – and deserve – an education that prepares them with the skills for tomorrow. Only together can we BUILD entrepreneurial mindset and skills for youth in communities that are underserved, overlooked, and underestimated. This month and always, let’s use entrepreneurship education to create a more diverse, equitable, and interconnected society.
We believe 2021 is a huge opportunity to change the narrative on equality and education.
