Ohio Business Week (OBW) is an exciting weeklong summer program that gives eligible high school students from around the state a unique, hands-on experience with business and entrepreneurship. Students learn directly from the pros how to establish and run their own company. Hosted on a college campus, students are also able to experience what campus life is like and lay the groundwork for a successful future!
Ohio Business Week is a program of the Ohio Business Week Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to preparing Ohio's high school students for success in the American free enterprise system while promoting leadership, integrity and entrepreneurship.
