Our Engage Class of ‘26 enjoyed Economic Development Day. The class visited the Related Ross Experience Center, the Historical Society, and toured CityPlace. Afterwards, they hopped on the bus to the Stiles Nicholson Brain Institute where they listened to various entrepreneurs speak in a small business showcase and exercised their creative brains by doing a Marshmallow Spaghetti Tower Challenge.

The day ended at Nieko’s Neighborhood Bar in Abacoa where classmates caught up with each other and chatted about their day.

Thank you to everyone who made this day possible!

The class first gathered at Viking Yachts and the Port of Palm Beach where they learned about careers in the marine and shipping industries. Then they enjoyed lunch and a high level etiquette lesson, toured the hotel, learned about the BDB, and experienced a “Career Carousel” with local businesses people.
