LEARN About Startups… While LAUNCHING Startups!
StartupsForStudents.com (and many related “ReThinking Startups” Programs, Workshops, Competitions, etc. for students AND non-students)
PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
With guidance/mentorship from experienced startup founders, you will actually start/run REAL ventures (what we refer to as “Starter Startups”)*
- LEARNING WHILE LAUNCHING
(and EARNING WHILE LEARNING?!) - MANAGE & MARKET (& MONETIZE?)
- PICK & PROMOTE (& PROFIT?)
Working Individually and/or in Teams, select “Multiple Eggs” (products) from “Multiple Baskets” (categories/collections, by product type or topic) that you will work on and actually share in REAL PROFITS from the projects/products in your “Starter Startups” portfolio! - COLLABORATE. COMPETE. REPEAT.
Collaborate with other program participants, but also compete against each other for additional profits and prizes (based on criteria such as: product sales, ad revenue, web traffic, social media engagement, etc.).
PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE:
- REAL Startup Experience, Entrepreneurship Education, and Personalized Mentoring
- *Share of Profits* from YOUR designated projects/products —
[Individual Incentive to COMPETE] - *Share of Profits* from ALL TEAMS’ PROJECTS —
[Group Incentive to COLLABORATE] - *Winners of various contests and challenges receive additional perks/prizes/profits*
- At the conclusion of the program, all participants are given the opportunity to negotiate for continued/ongoing participation (profit-sharing and/or real ownership/equity if venture is spun off into separate LLC) for any venture you feel you can provide ongoing value!
OUR HOPE IS TO FIND SOME LONG-TERM PARTNERS AND CO-FOUNDERS!
* Note: “Profits” are defined as revenue minus expenses, accrual-based accounting, for duration of program, AND for 30 days after program concludes.
