Office Evolution Somerville Sponsors Teen Tycoon Event

On Friday May 19th, Office Evolution Somerville will be sponsoring the entrepreneurial competition for Somerset County teens called “Teen Tycoon.”   Modeled after the popular show “Shark Tank,”  this is a great opportunity for teens to present their ideas to a panel of judges, receive feedback and possibly win prize money to help fund their idea!

When we heard about this great event, we just had to sponsor it and foster what our business thrives upon:  entrepreneurship.   Perhaps this is also part of looooong-term strategy to grow our membership and use of our furnished offices, coworking space and conference rooms designed for entrepreneurs and small businesses.   

Looking forward to a great event!    Regardless of who wins – all teams will really benefit from this experience and foster entrepreneurship at a young age.

Thank you to the Somerset County Library System for developing this great event.  The competition will be held at the Manville Library from 7pm – 9:30pm if anyone is interested in attending.
