The workshop series empowers students through a design thinking journey with the help of entrepreneurs & coaches. Each workshop is 10AM-Noon @ REV: Ithaca Startup Works and includes a panel discussion of entrepreneurs sharing their experiences, followed by hands-on learning with featured tools at each workshop. The goal of the workshop series is to help students develop an entrepreneurial mindset and rapidly develop and iterate ideas that they can share with the community through a series of markets.
The after-school Get Messy Lab is also hosted weekly on Wednesdays from 4-5:30PM, where students work with coaches and peers to develop their projects.
Students explore design thinking and an entrepreneurial mindset while developing ideas that can evolve into startup projects.
