The Lemoore Chamber of Commerce is developing young entrepreneurs, and it plans on showing them off to a panel of local of business investors.

The 2016-17 Lemoore Young Entrepreneur’s Academy, a program developed by the Lemoore Chamber, will send the student entrepreneurs and their businesses before the panel on March 30 to pitch their unique business plans. Hopefully there may be some start-up funding available.

The panel is made up of local business owners who have invested their own money as sponsors of the event.

Kevin Gong, a freshman at Lemoore Middle College High School, is launching 1 of 1 Outfitters, designed to help anyone with a cell phone, glasses or a camera. The idea is a microfiber cleaning cloth right at their fingertips, sewn directly into a t-shirt in a variety of patterns. It eliminates the need to carry around a cloth and reduces the risks of scratches.
