About this Event
CTRL Mogul Bootcamp 2.0 — Free Youth Entrepreneurship Program
What if your child could take an idea they’ve been thinking about and learn how to turn it into something real?
CTRL Mogul Bootcamp 2.0 is a FREE entrepreneurship experience designed for youth ages 10–16 who are ready to create, build, learn, and challenge themselves in a hands-on business environment.
Presented by the Douglas-Carroll-Paulding Counties Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., this program gives young people the opportunity to explore entrepreneurship in a way that is practical, engaging, and age-appropriate. Participants will do more than simply learn about business—they will begin building one.
Over the course of four high-impact Saturday sessions, participants will:
- Develop and strengthen a business idea
- Learn the fundamentals of starting a business
- Create a brand and identify their target customer
- Explore marketing and promotion
- Learn basic budgeting, expenses, pricing, and profit
- Build communication and presentation skills
- Prepare to confidently pitch their business
- Connect and collaborate with other young entrepreneurs
The goal is to help participants develop skills they can use well beyond the program—critical thinking, creativity, financial awareness, communication, leadership, confidence, and problem-solving.
The Shark Tank Finale
The experience culminates on Saturday, November 21, 2026, when participants will put what they have learned into action during our live Shark Tank-style pitch event.
Young entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to present their business ideas, demonstrate what they have built, practice communicating their vision, and experience what it feels like to pitch with confidence.
Before the finale, participants will also receive additional virtual pitch practice to help them prepare.
