The Bridgehampton VEI class recently attended the Virtual Enterprises
International Conference at Long Island University. The conference began
with keynote speeches by Marie Moody, creator of Stella & Chewy's
and Helen Avery, editor of Euromoney Magazine. The students worked in
three groups of 500 and participated in the elevator pitch competition
in which one student from each company gave their pitch. Student Akeem
Leckie did a great job representing Bridgehampton’s company! Other
breakout sessions included Financing a business, personal
branding/leadership, social media marketing, analytics, digital
marketing and the surprising secret to fundraising success.
