OUR PURPOSE
Building a community to facilitate startup development
As a startup community on campus, Ventures Accelerated helps empower the next generation of engineers, designers, and entrepreneurial managers. We work with extraordinary students, renowned professors, and distinguished sponsors to unite innovation, academia, and industry. Every year, our teams will get the opportunity to pitch their start-up for seed funding and present their idea to the world when ready. As a community, there are two key philosophies that we adhere by:
1. Mentorship
In order to cultivate future leaders and entrepreneurs, Ventures Accelerated values mentorship, which are seen through out its development series. Each startup will be paired with a mentor that will guide them through their initial launch.
2. Family
Over the course of the school year, all members of Ventures Accelerated bond over multiple social activities - such as gatherings, banquets, and club trips.
TESTIMONIALS
Ventures Accelerated taught me key skills, showed me deep industry insights, and connected me with other successful student founders, which allowed me to raise a $250k pre-seed round from a Google executive.
