About the Fair
A supportive environment to test the waters of business.
Hands-on Entrepreneurship
Hosted by a committee of local Naperville high school students, the fair gives young entrepreneurs the chance to test the waters of business by selling their own products and services in a supportive environment. Kids get real-world experience with planning, budgeting, marketing, and customer interaction. Past fairs have welcomed hundreds of kidpreneurs and thousands of community visitors.
Feedback & Mentorship
We believe the process is just as important as the outcome. Participants receive feedback from high school judges and local business professionals throughout the day. Awards recognize standout ideas and execution at the end of the fair, giving kids the confidence they need to succeed.
Community Powered
Families, neighbors, and sponsors help make the fair a welcoming celebration of youth creativity and leadership. We're proud to bring together Naperville and the surrounding suburbs to foster the next generation of creators and leaders.
The Committee
We're a team of high school students passionate about business.
Our Misson
As seen on FOX NEWS, NCTV17, and Patch, the fair is run by local high school students and gives children ages 5-14 the opportunity to test the waters of entrepreneurship by starting their own businesses and selling products and services in a one-day, farmers market style event. Our past four fairs have welcomed over 500 kidpreneurs and 350 businesses, positively impacting an estimated 5000+ community members.
