Success Beyond the Lemonade Stand
The event’s theme is ‘Success Beyond the Lemonade Stand’ promoting the value of early business literacy, entrepreneurship, determination and innovation – the winning formula for business success at any age. Many of today’s most successful business leaders started their own first business with a lemonade stand. The success of those early lemonade stands and business ideas were the foundation for future success. Today there’s a resurgence of interest in the lemonade stand as a model for young entrepreneurs and the next generation of business leaders.
