PCI students launch businesses and give back to community - PortageOnline.com [Video]

Students in the applied commerce program at Portage Collegiate Institute showcased their business ventures last week after a semester of hard work. The event featured student-run companies offering everything from custom apparel and cleaning services to marketing strategies and community-focused food programs. Gavin Taylor, who teaches applied commerce at PCI, says the event gives students a real taste of entrepreneurship. Weve got some students selling lip gloss, bracelets, snacks, social media marketing services, house cleaning, clothing, lots of variety, notes Taylor. Each visitor acts as a judge, receiving ten $1,000 PCI Bucks to invest in their favourite student businesses.
