Rock Star Entrepreneurs Launch The Young Entrepreneur Council To Help Young People Overcome Unemployment

Hoboken, NJ (PRWEB) October 13, 2010

Scott Gerber, serial entrepreneur, internationally syndicated small business columnist, and author of the upcoming book, Never Get a Real Job, today announced the launch of the first-ever Young Entrepreneur Council (YEC); an advocacy group made up of many of the worlds most successful young entrepreneurs, business owners and thought leaders. The YEC's mission is to help young people build successful businesses and overcome the devastating epidemics of youth underemployment and unemployment.

"Youth unemployment and underemployment are Gen Y epidemics," said Scott Gerber, the founder of the YEC. "Now, more than ever before, we must teach young people how to create their own streams of income and become self-sufficient small business owners. Who better to do that than their successful entrepreneurial peers."

According to the International Labour Organization, over 81 million young people are unemployed worldwide. Nearly 40% of young people in the U.S. have been unemployed or underemployed since 2008 (Pew Research Center).

"The Young Entrepreneur Council is the first step in a larger campaign to transform millenials into self-sufficient entrepreneurs. I have no doubt that the insights provided by our world class group of young business owners will provide readers with a practical, top notch small business education," said Gerber.

"Young entrepreneurs today need support and advice from those who have already built successful businesses, which is why I'm proud to be part of this project," said Dan Schawbel, author of Me 2.0 and Founder of Millenial Branding.

Initially, YEC members will answer small business questions posed by aspiring Gen Y entrepreneurs on NeverGetaRealJob.com. Readers will be able to ask the Council questions once they sign up for a free user account on the website. The Council will also contribute original content to various media outlets including WSJ, AllBusiness, and Mashable, to name a few.
