What a truly incredible week of CEO and community support. While we shared a quick video of our Gateway CEO Trade Show, there is definitely more to share! What a way to wrap up the year! 🎉
On Sunday, students gathered in the Barrel Room at the Press House @ Old Herald Brewery & Distillery in Collinsville. Our students showcased the results of months of hard work, creativity, and courage. Over the course of this program, 20 student-run businesses were launched with each one representing a dream turned into action.
From first ideas to final sales, these young entrepreneurs stepped into leadership, took risks, learned through challenges, and supported one another every step of the way.
The Trade Show wasn’t just about selling products, it was about confidence, growth, and discovering what’s possible. Thank you to every single family member, mentor, board member, investor, school staff and Gateway CEO family that stopped in to support our entrepreneurs.
So proud of this group and all they’ve accomplished. The future is bright. Special thanks to the Press House for hosting for the 6th year in a row and also to Voegele Photography Studio for capturing so many amazing moments throughout the day!
