MOBI and Partner Alabama A&M University Extension Present at the Southern Rural Sociological Association's Annual Meeting

Trish Kalbas-Schmidt, MOBI Sr. Director Institute Relations and Program Development and Alabama A&M University’s Extension Specialist Terence Norwood—and wonderful MOBI partner!— presented on the topic, “Connecting Communities: Innovation in Entrepreneurship Education” at the Southern Rural Sociological Association (SRSA) 2026 Annual Meeting. The event was held February 1-2, 2026 in Louisville, KY. 

To learn more about our incredible partnership with Alabama A&M University (AAMU), read their post from January 24, 2026: "AAMU Collaboration with My Own Business Institute Brings Virtual Entrepreneurship Training to Communities Statewide."

MOBI was honored to host Terence on campus in November 2025. He presented at our Advisory Board Meeting about the amazing programs offered by AAMU Extension and then attended MOBI's 10th Anniversary Celebration. The featured photo of Trish and Terence was taken during that visit.
