Introducing the entrepreneurial mindset to high school students

JumpStart is a program designed for high school students that sparks their entrepreneurial passion. Our hands-on program has students travel to ÁÔÓ¥ÌåÓýÖ±²¥'s campus to work on ideation, team-building, opportunity validation and pitching, while covering the basics on business through activities, engagement, and applied-learning. Whether a student's focus is computer science, green engineering or graphic design, we teach how to best understand a customer-focused business model approach and identify problems as opportunities.
