Side Hustle Expo 6.0

What happens when a pop-up market meets a showcase of student entrepreneurship? Side Hustle Expo.

Also, 🌎 Side Hustle Expo lands during Global Entrepreneurship Week (Nov 16-22) this year!

From handmade products and fashion brands to photography, baked goods, technology, creative services, and everything in between, students from every major will be showcasing the businesses they've built outside the classroom.
