At the annual Butler Tech Entrepreneur Fair, students don’t just display products, they pitch passion, purpose, and impact. This year, Dan Bates, President & CEO of the Greater Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, responded by announcing during the Entrepreneur Celebration Luncheon that every student entrepreneur who participated would be gifted a one-year membership to the Chamber.
The decision was inspired by Bates’ firsthand conversations with student business owners during the fair, where he saw their drive, creativity, and professionalism on full display.
