Wondering what all the commotion was in the Roto on Friday? First off, it’s pronounced “Be Unique,” clever, right? It stands for the Bryant University North East Entrepreneurship Conference. Bryant represents the greater New England area out of over 400 CEO chapters
nationwide. Bryant CEO is hosting their 5th annual nationally sponsored conference this Saturday, February 20th from 10 AM – 5 PM in Bello Grand Hall.
There are a variety of keynote speakers including Marques Ogden, a former NFL lineman and now entrepreneur, Jenna Atkinson, a nationally renowned branding consultant out of the midwest, and Darren Lacroix, an ‘88 Bryant alum who founded the Humor Institute.
