About the fair
Observe the opportunity for children to launch their very own startup business!

Children ages 6-14 develop a brand, create a product or service, build a marketing strategy, and then open for customers at our one-day marketplace. 

We will host 40 booths at the 2nd annual Children's Business Fair event on Sunday, June 25th from 12:00pm-3:00pm.  The fair will be located at 115 W Harford Street in Milford, Pennsylvania.

This event is sponsored by Ascend: An Acton Academy, the Acton School of Business, and the generous support of our donors and volunteers.  We all believe that principled entrepreneurs are heroes and role models for the next generation. 

Whether an entrepreneur is famous or they are one of the thousands of unsung business owners across this country, these are the people who make sacrifices to innovate, create jobs and serve their communities.

How did the Acton Children’s Business Fair get started?
Jeff and Laura Sandefer and a few other families wanted to spark a sense of wonder and entrepreneurship in their children so they created the first Acton Children’s Business Fair in Austin, Texas, in 2007. That year, there were seven entrepreneurs and around 25 attendees. Now, there are over 115 entrepreneurs and 1,500 attendees at the Acton Children's Business Fair in Austin.
