Horn Youth Initiative
At its founding in 2012, Horn Entrepreneurship launched a youth initiative to address major gaps in secondary entrepreneurship education. While most programs at the time focused on small business management, Horn Youth was designed to unleash creativity, foster a mindset of abundance and self-determination, and inspire purposeful entrepreneurial action. Today, Horn Youth stands as an internationally recognized program with a thriving local and global ecosystem.
