IDEAS & INSIGHTS SYMPOSIUM

Each year the MYBEP Ideas & Insights Symposium brings together youth exhibitors and knowledgeable speakers for an incredible learning opportunity that kicks off the Expo.

Participating youth will have the opportunity to listen to a celebrity motivational speaker and select a range of sessions to learn about everything from management practices and nutrition to genetics and improving your MYBEP application. Past motivational speakers have included Amberley Snyder, motivational speaker, author and barrel racer; Lance Pekus, “The Cowboy Ninja” from America Ninja Warrior; and agricultural advocates, the Peterson Farm Brothers.
