Congratulations Cal Poly Senior
Project
The first
CEL/Cal Poly Senior Project was a huge success. This community services outreach
program allowed Cal Poly senior business students get hands-on
experience and course credit for working with CEL entrepreneurs in our
business incubator program.
The three
teams worked with our incubator clients conducting professional market
research analysis and ultimately developing professional marketing
plans for each business. We are deeply grateful for their participation
and enthusiasm. We look forward
to continuing the program this summer and/or in the fall.
