Ne-Yo bringing entrepreneurial boot camp to CAU

Grammy-award winning singer and producer Ne-Yo will be at Clark Atlanta University this week hosting his foundation’s “Future CEO Academy,” aimed at kids in the state’s foster care and group home systems.

Starting Thursday, 50 teenagers selected by the Georgia Department of Human services will participate in a three-day entrepreneurship boot camp, led by a team of entrepreneurs, faculty members and local officials. Each student is expected to finish the program with a workable business plan.

Students will attend classes on business, intellectual property law, idea pitching and presentation skills.
