Students from UNI, Iowa State, University of Iowa, Buena Vista, and Iowa Lakes Community College got together for the Okoboji Entrepreneurial Institute which was held August 4-8th. At OEI, the students participate in entrepreneurial simulations and have the chance to network with fellow students and community members. The eight students who attended this year were Reagan Brown, Corey Behrens, Robert Sales, Samantha Schpanitz, Matt Zilley, Ryan Falk, Jessica Wise, and Jacob Smith. At this year's OEI, Robert Sales of Rob's Mini Donuts placed second in the elevator pitch completion and received $400. Regan Brown and her team took first place in the Red Universe while Ryan Falk and his team got first in the Blue Universe.
