“Howard’s Very Own” is a new program to display up-and-coming entrepreneurs as well as proven business owners within the university. It is the first platform with a business directory, an interview web series highlighting business owners, social media presence and a business showcase.
Bola Olusanya, Graduate Student Advisor of the Howard University Entrepreneurial Society (HUES) says, “HUES recognizes that coming out of Howard University are a great number of up-and coming entrepreneurial ventures that need the support of the Howard community.”
Olusanya also talks about the vision and work ethic the students and alumni have for their creative businesses. She says the collegiate community would be doing a “great disservice” not to promote their entrepreneurship spirit.
Howard’s Very Own Entrepreneurship Fair is a collaborative initiative of Culture Starved Magazine, Champion Studio, and the Howard University Entrepreneurial Society.
