About this Event

Presented with support from Huntington Bank, the Stark County Impact Program Entrepreneur Showcase marks the culmination of JumpStart's 12-week Stark County Impact Program, where entrepreneurs work with coaches, industry experts and one another to strengthen their businesses, sharpen their growth plans and prepare to tell their stories.

Now, they're ready to put that work into action.

Each entrepreneur will pitch their business and plans for growth in front of a panel of community stakeholders. One business will walk away with $10,000, while each runner-up will receive $2,500 to support the continued growth of their business.
