Our Service in Action
Advancing Entrepreneurial Skill Development
Mentoring youth to build skills of the future
We created a 4-week program for teaching entrepreneurial skills to middle school students in a super fun way through a ‘Sticker Startup’ Game.
Through experiential learning, students applied essential entrepreneurial skills such as Ideation, Prototyping, Finance essentials, Go-to market strategy and pitched their startups to peers and teachers.
Check out some of the fun the students had at the Valley Ranch Academy in Texas!
