Venture College Incubator
Launch Your Venture Beyond the Classroom
Individuals/Teams participate in a not-for-credit ten week “lean startup” cohort focused on determining if their business idea can become a business opportunity (repeatable, scalable, & profitable). Participants dive into customer discovery, develop a minimum viable product, define a unique value proposition, and more.
Download the Lean Canvas Model to build out your business template ahead of the cohort. Email your completed model to the Programs & Projects Coordinator.
