With a vision for promoting entrepreneurship statewide, the Wilbur D. Mills Educational Service Co-op, John Brown University SIFE Team, Economics Arkansas, and the Arkansas Economic Acceleration Foundation (AEAF) conceived the idea for a statewide business plan competition for grades 5-8. Since 2005, Economics Arkansas and Arkansas Capital Corporation have made major grants to support the competition. AEAF is dedicated to the refinement and expansion process of the competition and has since collaborated with several community partners to ensure the success of Y.E.S through their generous donations.
