It connects each student to carefully curated, exclusive resources and experts designed to support and grow a business or innovation. The program also utilizes structured peer groups to elevate personal skills and collaboration, while also promoting progress. This unique combination of resources, experts, and programming leads to a supportive environment filled with exclusive opportunities to build a business and valuable connections to support leadership and entrepreneurial journeys.
