CEOs of Tomorrow, an entrepreneurial program that gives youth the opportunity to affect positive social change while earning money, will have a new home at The Black Business Hub called the Dr. Roxie Hentz International Center for Youth Entrepreneurship which will honor the transformative legacy of its founding executive director, the non-profit announced on Monday.
For nearly a decade, Dr. Hentz has championed youth entrepreneurship, financial literacy, leadership development, and economic mobility for students around the world, according to a press release from CEOs of Tomorrow, and her vision and leadership have built a strong foundation, ensuring that CEOs of Tomorrow will continue to thrive and expand under new leadership in a dynamic new space.
“This new space is more than just a building — it is a symbol of intentional community development. Providing a place where students, as early as fourth grade, can conceive ideas, obtain support, and bring them to life puts them on a path toward generational wealth,” said DeAndre Martin, incoming CEOs of Tomorrow’s executive director, in a press release. “I am deeply honored. This new space is a beacon of possibility, where young visionaries will dream boldly, innovate fearlessly, and build a future of limitless opportunity. I can’t wait to see this vision come to life in a space that will inspire, empower, and launch the next generation of world-changing entrepreneurs.”
The Dr. Roxie Hentz International Center for Youth Entrepreneurship will serve as a global gateway, strengthening international partnerships and offering students opportunities to travel and engage with young entrepreneurs worldwide. Through CEOs Of Tomorrow’s International Academy and Global Excursions programs, students will gain critical exposure to diverse economic systems, broadening their perspectives, cultural awareness, and aspirations.
CEOs of Tomorrow intends to move into this new space later this summer.
