Entrepreneurship

The only cohort that ends with a real business.

The VMotiv8 Entrepreneurship Cohort takes students from a raw idea to a launched venture in 12 weeks. Students meet every Saturday in a small live group led by a VMotiv8 founder mentor, validate their idea with real customers, and leave with a business that has a verified traction number. No prior business experience is required.

What your student will do:

1. Validate their idea through real customer interviews
2. Learn business model, pricing, and unit economics fundamentals
3. Build branding, a landing page, and a go-to-market plan
4. Launch a venture with a verified traction number: users, sales, or dollars raised
5. Create a pitch deck and present at a Shark Tank style demo day
6. Get positioned for Diamond Challenge, DECA, FBLA, and Conrad Challenge
7. Leave with activities list and essay framing for business and entrepreneurship majors
