On April 10th, the Entrepreneurship Program held its annual expo and awards ceremony. The students from the program had the opportunity to showcase their projects and ideas to members of the University and DeLand Community in the Stetson Room.
Ideas varied from an app that allows customers to design professional looking cakes and desserts to a biodegradable hydroponic system using the incorporation of the bio plastic polymer resin fertilizer or a chemical-free face and body cream. It was truly impressive to witness our students articulate and present their ideas with finesse to the audience.
We would like to congratulate the student award winners:
- Prince Entrepreneurship Leader of the Year – Zarek Swann
- Prince Entrepreneurship Rookie Leader of the Year – Tom Di Lorenzo and Chris Chappell
