Start Your Venture Here
We are the early-stage student-run startup accelerator at Tufts University that empowers students with the guidance and resources to take their ideas from zero to one in a low-risk environment.
What We Provide
STRUCTURE
Each semester, we accept students that demonstrate passion for entrepreneurship and commitment to work on ventures. Through our stage based process, we help them formulate ideas, find co-founders, and accelerate through the early stages of the entrepreneurship process.
GUIDANCE
We host weekly workshops led by industry founder experts to teach our cohort how to validate their ideas, test their products, and pitch to investors. We also have a network of experienced mentors who are dedicated to providing teams with custom advising.
COMMUNITY
As the hub of student-led entrepreneurship presence on campus, we host speaker events and social networking sessions that bring together students from outside of the program to strengthen the innovative culture of Tufts University.
