They’ll learn valuable skills like market research, product development, prototyping and competitive analysis, and they’ll even get experience with pitching. The best part? They’ll have a ton of fun along the way.
In additional to our engaging teachers, working professionals from the area will be present during each course, serving as mentors who provide guidance, advice and networking opportunities to each and every student. These mentors can prove to be powerful connections as students work to make their companies successful outside the classroom.
This summer, VentureLab will offer two Youth Startup courses:
Youth Startup 101 – For those learning the entrepreneurial process for the first time, Youth Startup 101 will take students through the basics of developing an idea into a real product or service. They’ll learn how those skills can be applied to any interest or passion that they have!
Youth Startup Launch – If your student wants an advanced look into starting a company, they can deep dive into entrepreneurship at Youth Startup Launch! Though perfect for students who are returners to VentureLab or who have used our curriculum in their schools, previous experience is not required. We do strongly recommend that students come to camp with an idea for a product or service they want to work on!
