(Young) Renegade CEO's Last 5 Posts

Age is only a number and so is a million :)

(Pardon our site...a new one is coming....Note: As of August 11, 2008, we've moved. If you go to www.renegadeceos.com you will find us there.)

Age is only a number and so is a million. Unfortunately the higher either one of those numbers are the more it has long been assumed that dictates your level of credibility and respect....but not here!

WHO:
The (Young) Renegade CEO's are a motley crew of aspriring and emerging pioneering CEO's 19 and under who were tired of old school business ideologies, lack of 'unapproachable' role models and being told to wait until they are 'older'. They have the devoted support of one adult (The Nika'Nator) who fully encourages them to have the time of their life while pursuing the chance of a lifetime. Having no money, no recognized brand and no set path is the least of their worries as they embark on their small business start up adventures full speed ahead. Insane or ingenious? ...We'll let you decide.

WHAT:
The "Renegades" is now a rapidly growing underground movement, a culture and an experience that apparently only aspiring and emerging entrepreneurs under age 18 (perhaps like you) can truly relate to. Many young entrepreneurs get their start here because we, the co-founders of Renegade CEO's, have developed an open system and a community which allows TRULY young entrepreneurs to start from 'Wherever they are NOW'. We help young entrepreneurs to create an entrerepeneurial mindset that will help them start or grow their business with simply a concept or idea and little or no money.

WHY:
We realize that with other organizations there is a catch 22 where you have to have money to be able to make money or young people are not taken seriously because they cannot enter into a contract or can't get the job they really want because they are not old enough or have enough experience. Not here. Entrepreneurship is a clique where everybody fits in. We proudly and confidently serve as the voice for emerging voices. We will hold 'your space' in the universe and provide you with the business coaching, access to resources and support you need until you feel ready to hold your own place. In exchange we expect your personal commitment to help evolve the greater cause.

HOW:
Inspired by youth for youth, Renegade CEO's care and share via an internet web series, a social networking community, articles, in-person events and teleseminars. We rely heavily on your voice, your ideas and your innovation. As for how we make money- We believe that it is one's personal and social responsibility to do not only what you are good at but most importantly what's good for you. And when you are doing this selflessly every day in every way the forces of the universe will work the rest out...and usually in your favor :)


Is this your first time here?
WELCOME and thanks so much for stopping by! We need your involvement, your expertise, your vision and your voice. Getting started is easy- Just go to the right side bar, scroll down '2 sections' and sign up for our free 10 day mini e-course 'The Making of a (Young) Renegade CEO'. It will bring you current with everything going on here.

Daniel Uribe Takes 2nd at NFTE Advanced Business Plan Competition

Teen Renegade CEO, Daniel Uribe of Lazer Bearing, takes 2nd place at the NFTE Advanced Entrepreneurship Competition. Along with the award he also won $3,000 to add to his steadily growing seed money. This makes award #5 this year (3 National, 1 Global, 1 Regional) won by our Renegade CEO's. Whew Hew....We'll take it!



After his week long camp in NYC, courtesy of NFTE he came to Washington, DC for a week of brainstorming and productivity. As an active and growing teenage boy of course he ate up all my food, then enjoyed food at some great restaurants, spent all my money and had free housekeeping and culinary preparation services courtesy of yours truly :). In exchange I got a week of filming and editing for my top Renegade CEO's promo videos. Personally, I think I got a much sweeter deal.



Aside from that we are counting down the days for the website launch...the design is done we are just awaiting upload to the server. That should take place Monday or Tuesday next week. Our sad little MySpace page is also being redesigned and will launch one day next week. So that definitely spells R-E-L-I-E-F. So as soon as those 2 things go live we can really start marketing and putting our name out there because people will understand our vibe and our vision and everything else will soon follow. Hurray hurrah!



Until Next Time-

don't talk about it, be about it.

Love and Laughter,

Nika,

Congrats to Daniel on his 2nd place finish! That is quite an accomplishment.

Also, I saw the post you did about me and my book. Thank you so much. I am flattered AND blushing.
