Everything you need to know about the Rochester, Minnesota Children's Business Fair

Just a few days away, an amazing event is being held for the first time in Rochester just for kids!  If you've got a young entrepreneur that is between the ages of 6 and 18, let them enjoy this free event that will help them develop and enhance business skills and possibly even earn a $50 cash prize!

“As simple as it sounds, every innovator, leader or successful entrepreneur was first a child. It’s important to not quench the curiosity and ingenuity that each child possesses. The Rochester Children’s Business Fair gives students the opportunity to launch businesses and learn valuable lessons that can be translated into other areas of life." -  Brittny Major-Elechi, founder of The Daniel Christian Academy, one of the sponsors of the fair.
