Today’s teenagers are a market you can’t ignore.  Not only do they have discretionary income and influence family spending – they spend family money!  The teen population is growing.  Today’s teens will be tomorrow’s top consumers.

Where can you capture the attention of approximately 2,000 high school marketing, management, and entrepreneurship students and their advisors at once place in one day? The answer: the DECA Central Region Leadership Conference (CRLC) on
December 4-6, 2009 at the Minneapolis Hilton Hotel in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Minnesota DECA will host the CRLC that will focus on an opportunity for attendees to text iT up! throughout the 3 day  leadership conference. Our DECA members from our thirteen-state Midwestern region will be networking and experiencing session presented by speakers from the marketing industry, leadership development activities, energy-packed general sessions, and competitive excellence seminars.

Please review the sponsorship and exhibition opportunities and consider how you can positively impact 2,000 high school students.
