Master the startup process with our premier statewide Venture School, an innovative training program focused on real-world experimentation, customer discovery, and Lean LaunchPad methodologies. This program uses the official National Science Foundation I-Corps curriculum to help high-potential startups turn their ideas into reality. With hub locations across the state, the program allows Iowa entrepreneurs to reap its benefits. This program works for startups, small businesses, non-profits, and corporate innovation teams. Test your business hypothesis immediately by getting out into the community to talk to customers, partners, and competitors, rather than relying on static case studies and secondhand market research. You will encounter the chaos and uncertainty of commercializing innovations and creating new ventures, while also being challenged to create your own business model as you make pivots or preserve your original plans based on your findings. Classes will begin in October and end in mid/late November. Classes occur during evenings, Wednesday or Thursday, depending on location of cohort. The first team member will cost $299. Every additional team member that joins the cohort will be an additional $99. However, many monetary awards can be won at the end of the program! The fall Venture School program will be hosted in both Des Moines and Cedar Falls. The deadline to apply is September 10, 2018.
