Career Services and Wellness Center Holds Annual Entrepreneurship Fair

The Career Services and Wellness Center at AUK held its Annual Entrepreneurship Fair at AUK central hallway on February 19th.

The annual fair is a platform to nurture students' entrepreneurship skills through promoting their business ideas and selling their products. Items on display ranged from handmade jewelry to clothing and organic products.

"It is the best opportunity that students can use to showcase their talents and implement their business skills," said Abir Itani, Career and Personal Counselor at the Career and Wellness Center.

The Entrepreneurship fair helps students develop their capacity to innovate and think creatively, assets that "can then be transferred and applied to real life," according to Itani. Through this type of activities, students learn to utilize their hobbies and passions and turn them into marketable business ideas.
