Young Entrepreneurs Council

The Young Entrepreneurs Council (YEC) of the Policy Advisory Board was formed in 2009. The newly formed council is a group of high performers under the age of 35, whose total number is limited to 10 at any one time. Due to the council's size limitation, membership is by invitation only. Young Entrepreneurs Council members are committed to providing fresh ideas, high energy and great enthusiasm to the Burnham-Moores Center, specifically from the perspective of their generation.
