This summer we will be hosting from August 5-15 the first ever Launch Camp at UM. Hurricane entrepreneurs will be putting in two full weeks to bring their ideas to market. Entrepreneurs will be learning the fundamentals of the lean startup methodology to get their products from idea stage to validation.
Students will learn the core concepts of design thinking, problem identification, innovation, customer development and best practices for problem solving. Guided by in-house and community experts, students will engage in project-based, experiential learning.
Students will also be trained on project management and exposed to cutting-edge digital tools to help students organize their ventures, prototype solutions and market their ideas. Students will be able to walk away with a skillset and mindset that will benefit their critical thinking in any professional area or career.
Students will interact with Launch Pad staff, venture consultants, alumni and guest experts.
