| Time: 11:15 EST/16:15 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

Team Creative Solutions Inc. from New York City, a student-created business plan specializing in providing consumers with a personal and interactive method for shopping online, won top honors at the Making the Business: Youth IT Challenge competition hosted at the annual National Urban League (NUL) Convention. The competition was developed by Microsoft Corp. and the NUL to increase entrepreneurialism among minorities and to spark their interest in the technology industry. “Economic development is key for the success of African Americans and minorities overall in this country,” said Marc Morial, CEO and president of the National Urban League. “These students, as they have shown us here today, are a testament that access to the right resources and mentors encourages youth to seek out opportunities in the business world and the IT field alike. I know we’ll see the names of these students in the business pages and in the boardrooms across America one day.” | ||
