Renowned entertainment executive and Morgan alumnus Kevin Liles returned to campus yesterday for the closing awards ceremony of the inaugural ‘Make It Happen Summer Business Institute.’ The institute hosted 22 Baltimore City and Baltimore County high school juniors and seniors, and engaged them in a two-week business plan competition judged by panel of local entrepreneurs, legislators and civic leaders.
The program was funded by Liles’ ‘Make it Happen’ Foundation, and was managed by the MSU Entrepreneurial Development & Assistance Center. Morgan professors, MBA alumni and undergraduate students provided instruction on marketing, software and finance to help the students develop their business plans.
