Gen Y Capital Partners Stimulating Youth EntrepreneurshipIn a recent Forbes article, read how our very own Carissa Reiniger is helping ambitious Gen Y’ers to follow their dreams to become entrepreneurs with the Gen Y Capital Partners! This new approach was recently announced by the White House:

In essence, ambitious Gen-Y’ers will have the opportunity to create a company and bring back jobs to America!” Read the full article: http://www.forbes.com/sites/danschawbel/2011/10/27/help-stimulate-youth-entrepreneurship-in-americ
