Young Entrepreneurs Invited to Learn, Grow, and Sell at the Youth Entrepreneurship Hub and Kidtrepreneur Marketplace

Young entrepreneurs with big ideas will have the opportunity to turn their creativity into action during the Youth Entrepreneurship Hub and Kidtrepreneur Marketplace – Part 2, hosted by Lady Godiva Productions on Saturday, August 22, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Refill Jackson Initiative, located at 136 S. Adams Street in West Jackson.

Designed for youth ages 12 to 18, the Youth Entrepreneurship Hub provides aspiring business owners with practical entrepreneurship training, whether they are launching their first business idea or looking to take an existing venture to the next level. Participants will learn core business concepts, refine their pitches, and gain valuable experience by selling their products and services in a live youth vendor marketplace.

Registration is $20 and includes vendor space. Participants should bring their own setup and inventory. Space is limited to 50 participants, so early registration is encouraged.

Families and community members are also invited to attend the Kidtrepreneur Marketplace, which is open to the public from 1 to 3 p.m. Admission is free with the donation of one personal hygiene item. Visitors will have the opportunity to shop from talented young CEOs, creators, makers, and innovators while supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs.

Whether your child has a product, service, creative talent, or simply a business idea waiting to be developed, this event offers a unique opportunity to learn, earn, and grow in a supportive environment.
