Community's developmental impact
- Economic Development: CEO encourages students to see the business opportunity in their own community.

- CEO promotes a spirit of appreciation towards entrepreneurship in the community and helps break down barriers and labels between both schools, students, and members of the community.
Prepare the Next Generation
- As CEO grows, it is clear that CEO students have leverage for scholarships and acceptance, that colleges and junior colleges are offering dual credits; and that employers are seeking young professionals with the CEO learning experience.
- CEO, as it continues to grow, offers a true transformational experience and connects students to a high level of business people in their community.
