The Regional Leadership Centers:

• Support Entrepreneurship: Centers provide entrepreneurship support services, including mentoring, technology, and access to capital.

• Enhance Professional Networking: Centers offer young leaders the opportunity to connect with each other, experienced professionals, and experts from across the region.
