J-Term Startup Sprint is coming…

Startup Sprints are two-week programs that teach and support aspiring NYU entrepreneur teams to transform their ideas and inventions into businesses. Whether you are an NYU student, researcher, or faculty, a Startup Sprint will challenge you to deepen your understanding of your customers and to cater your business idea to their needs—we call this “problem-solution fit”. During the program, your team will have access to expert startup coaches who will help guide you through this process. You will also be provided with skills-building workshops, grant funding, peer support from your cohort of startup teams, and more!

Past participants have left the program with a newfound confidence in their business capabilities, having found the experience “transformative and groundbreaking”. Past teams have won the $300K NYU Entrepreneurs Challenge, the InnoVention Challenge, the TigerLaunch entrepreneurship competition, and have been accepted into the NYU Summer Launchpad and Stern Venture Fellows programs, among others. Many have gone on to generate revenue and raise investment capital!

Startup Sprints are held in the winter and in the summer when regular classes are not in session. The next Startup Sprint will take place January 7-17, 2020 (all day Mon-Fri).
