Ohio-based Young Entrepreneur Institute is organizing the Enspire Conference 2023. The gathering for educators, program directors and school administrators is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Fayetteville Public Library.

Highlights include:

  • Keynote speaker presentation by Jahkil Jackson, founder of Project I Am

The Walton Family Foundation announced a $1.2 million grant to Young Entrepreneur Institute earlier this year. The funding established a two-year pilot of the initiative in Northwest Arkansas.
