How to Apply

Our Program

Is a pre-accelerator for students to explore entrepreneurship and develop their ideas through Customer Discovery and Customer Validation. Admitted scholars are ambitious, high-achieving students that want to make a difference in their communities and their respective fields. The vision of our program is to engage students early, provide them with an environment to practice the science of entrepreneurship, and open opportunities for them to grow their businesses in the region.

Students that fully participate in our pre-accelerator and gain admission into our partnering accelerator via Conscious Venture Lab may receive up to $140,000 in funding.
