Institute for Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurial Education Partner
Ruthie Ruhl (CEO class of 2021) dropped in to see how students were coming along with their pitches for the Midland Institute for Entrepreneurship CEO National Pitch Competition.
We talked with Ruthie a few weeks ago via Zoom about how to leverage your CEO experience, but she was willing to come and talk in person while she was home from College of Central Florida. Her advice helped the our team members figure out how to really "produce the wow" for the upcoming pitch competition. And Ruthie ought to know what it takes - she is a judge for the competition! (But of course she won't be judging anyone from her home county.)
Did you know? CEO is growing! There are nearly 100 programs spread over more than a dozen states. The national pitch competition will prove to be a challenge - but Land of Lincoln CEO entrepreneurs are preparing to rise to the occasion!
