Talking Business at
Tri-C’s Entrepreneur Expo
CLEVELAND:
Cuyahoga
Community College (Tri-C®) will
showcase innovative business ideas from students and alumni this
month during its fifth annual Tri-C Entrepreneur Expo,
which will be virtual this year due to the coronavirus.
The free event to spark business growth in the community will
take place online from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Friday, Oct. 30,
2020. Visit
livestream.com/tri-c/expo to participate.
The featured speaker will be Tory Coats, winner of
Cleveland’s Accelerate 2018 business pitch competition. Coats
founded the nonprofit Teen Enterprise to build on his idea of
giving
young entrepreneurs opportunities using underutilized
storefronts and vacant lots in the city.
The expo will include discussions with Tri-C students and alumni
who have found business success. Information will be provided on
community services available to entrepreneurs.
The event is presented with support from the Burton D. Morgan
Foundation. Students at Jane Addams Business Careers
Center planned the event as part of an entrepreneurship
program offered through Tri-C and the Cleveland Metropolitan
School District (CMSD).
