Young Entrepreneurs

The Business Development Team (BDT) is a business networking organization that is geared towards businesses that cater to the needs of other businesses. It’s B2B. Furthermore, the members of our group fully embrace the concept of coaching. Consequently, coaching is inherently ingrained into BDT’s culture. That is why BDT is very excited to introduce The Young Entrepreneurs Coaching Program. Our program will allow young entrepreneurs to get coaching from three mentors from the local business community. The program will also provide young entrepreneurs with a network of local business professionals that they can use as they work to build their businesses. BDT is an organization that is all about helping individuals within the business community achieve their goals and make some lifelong friends in the process.
