GLOBAL TREKS

Similar to an entrepreneurship field trip, our Global Trek program takes 20-30 of the most elite entrepreneurship students and immerses them into the world of startups, early-stage ventures, and high-impact companies. During our two to four day trek, students visit companies, hear from the founders, tackle innovation challenges (sometimes even fixing real-world problems), learn to pitch, and more. Our goal is to help these elite students understand the benefits of working at a startup and the challenges of growing and early-stage business.

 

These treks are open to Entrepreneurs Leadership Program and TechLab students only.

The immersion treks provided me a chance to create deeper connections with both the alumni we visited and the other students on the trip. They are a crash course in everything entrepreneurship, and allowed me to absorb so much knowledge from everyone around me just by listening.
