Minority Business – Minority Owned Business

For two weeks every summer, high school juniors and seniors from Houston’s
low and moderate income areas come to the Rice University campus to learn
about business and finance. They hear lectures, take field trips to
corporate headquarters, meet successful minority business leaders, and work
in teams to tackle real world projects such as making buy, sell, or hold
recommendations on a stock.
