ClickHOST is to support the first Kids Business Expo, an event which will be held at the Cobb Galleria in Atlanta, Georgia on February 07, 2015. The event aims to provide children aged 12 -18 with knowledge related to starting their own businesses. It will include a range of workshops and seminars designed to “empower kids and their entrepreneurial minds” with titles that cover areas such as marketing, financials, social media, and how to be a successful entrepreneur.
ClickHOST was established in 2000 and acquired by Carel Bekker in 2010. It caters to a global customer base that includes individuals and companies in Canada and the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Namibia, Australia, India, Japan, and Portugal. Alongside supporting Kids Business Expo, the company will be present at the event offering $1.00 .com domains and a draw with interesting prizes.
Marcus Lemonis, the presenter of US television channel CNBC’s ‘The Profit’, will be a keynote speaker at Kids Business Expo. Nicknamed the ‘business turnaround king’, Mr. Lemonis is chairman and CEO of Camping World, the largest outdoor retailer in the United States. In ‘The Profit’, Mr. Lemonis deals with companies that are ailing and offers advice on how to address their problems.
“We are excited to see that the concept and vision of Kids Business Expo is so well received by students and young entrepreneurs,” explained the CEO the organizer of Kids Business Expo, Dirk Ebener. “The combination of education and an expo is reaching into schools, business clubs, and many other platforms teaching the importance of entrepreneurship. We are very pleased to see that so many business leaders in our community support the first edition of Kids Business Expo. ClickHOST immediately committed to the event and will also present a workshop in the afternoon. Business leaders like Carel Bekker clearly understand the vision of our event and the importance of creating opportunities for kids of all ages.”
