Jones College of Business event to be held at Embassy Suites
MURFREESBORO
— Area business and community leaders don’t want to miss MTSU’s
half-day conference focused on the impact the Millennial Generation is having
and will have on our economy.
The conference — titled “2020 Millennial Game Plan: Maximizing
Millennial Entrepreneurship and Innovation” — will be held from 8:15 a.m. to
12:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31, at Embassy Suites Murfreesboro, 1200 Conference
Center Blvd.
The conference is free to MTSU students, faculty and staff and will
cost $30 for others. To register online, go to http://bit.ly/mtsu-millennial. The deadline to register is Tuesday,
Oct. 28.
By 2020, the so-called ‘Millennial’ generation — young adults raised
in a digital age and motivated by a different set of values from generations
past — will make up 40 percent of the workforce. The conference will explore
what this means to the regional and national economy and how to maximize the
entry of this new generation of workers into the job market.
Featured speakers include Matt Thornhill and John Martin of
Virginia-based marketing research company GenerationsMatter and John Boyens of The Boyens Group, a Nashville-based
sales, management and training firm.
The conference is being hosted by the Jennings A. Jones Chair of
Excellence in Private Enterprise as well as the Jennings A. Jones College of
Business. For more information about the Jones College of Business, go to http://www.mtsu.edu/business/.
