Dare to Dream!

Placeholder

Last night we went to the Ronald Reagan Building for the 2015 Network For Teaching Entrepreneurship Dare to Dream Gala. NFTE is DC’s largest networking event supporting youth entrepreneurship. We snapped Dr. Bernard Demczuk with the evening's locally grown honoree: the Ali family: Nizam, Sonya, Suraya, Jaleel and Kamal.

At the Youth Entrepreneurship Showcase, 30 local students pitched their businesses while selling their products. The featured companies included Confections of the Rich and Flavorful, Upstage Right Party Planning, and DJ Mynt. Here, Routeam’s Dustin Canter is surrounded by E Trade Financial’s Patricia Milon and Mid-Atlantic Venture Association’s Julia Spicer and Kim Weir.
