Empowering the next generation of business leaders
Welcome to The CEO Blueprint Academy LLC, based in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Founded by Shanae Curry, MBA, our mission is to educate, inspire, and empower future entrepreneurs through practical business education, hands-on mentorship, and transformative leadership training.
Our founder's journey and vision
With more than 15 years of entrepreneurial experience owning Final Touch Bridal and Kidz Korner After School, Founder & CEO Shanae Curry, MBA, understands firsthand the grit, sacrifice, and passion required to build a thriving business. Her experience as an educator and business owner inspired her to launch The CEO Blueprint Academy LLC—bridging the gap between classroom textbooks and real-world entrepreneurship so aspiring innovators have the guidance and confidence to bring their visions to life.
Real-world business learning in action
Unlike traditional business classes focused strictly on theory, we bring business to life through interactive, hands-on experiences. Our students formulate realistic business plans, craft unique brand identities, establish startup budgets, build marketing campaigns, and present live during our signature CEO Pitch Competitions. Rooted in our core values of education, empowerment, integrity, innovation, leadership, and opportunity, we equip young people to think, plan, and lead like true CEOs.
Partner with us to inspire future CEOs
We actively collaborate with middle schools, high schools, colleges, and community organizations to offer career readiness training, youth entrepreneurship workshops, and keynote speaking. Ready to help students turn passions into real business opportunities? Connect with us directly at 470-725-6122 to schedule a complimentary 15-minute discovery consultation and see how we can support your students and community.
"What inspires me most is the opportunity to see a student's mindset shift from 'I don't know if I can' to 'I believe I can.' Success isn't just about building businesses; it's about building confidence, resilience, and future leaders."
