Pursuing a career in Technology has its<br />
built-in challenges. What needn’t be a challenge<br />
is finding the financial support to help<br />
you in achieving your goals. To that end,<br />

our commitment to the academic success<br />
of minority students and to the cultivation<br />
and recruitment of qualified minority<br />
employees in technical fields, scholarships<br />
are available in the amount $1,000 – $10,000<br />
(depending on tuition balance, academic<br />
excellence and classification). Applicants<br />
must be academic high-achievers (3.0 or<br />
better GPA), U.S. citizens or visa-holding<br />
Permanent Residents of African American,<br />
Asian, Pacific Island, Native American,<br />

Yoshiyama Young Entrepreneurs<br />
Program<br />
With its focus on supporting the ingenuity<br />
and leadership of young people, the newly<br />
designed Yoshiyama Young Entrepreneurs<br />
Program remains rooted in the values, spirit,<br />
and tradition of our original Yoshiyama<br />
Award. The Yoshiyama Young Entrepreneurs<br />
Program identifies and supports inspiring<br />
young entrepreneurs who are operating<br />
businesses that help to improve the lives<br />
of low-wealth individuals in America. This<br />
competitive program is open to entrepreneurs<br />
who are operating viable businesses<br />
that help create greater economic opportunity<br />
for low-wealth individuals in America,<br />
and who began their business before the<br />
age of 30. Yoshiyama Young Entrepreneurs<br />
receive a cash prize and technical resources<br />
to support their business, as well as benefit<br />
from a partnership with Investors’ Circle<br />
— a nonprofit membership organization<br />
that provides investment to support social<br />
entrepreneurs.<br />
