Are you a student founder Interested in joining the Eureka! Student Venture Program and pitching your venture?

The Eureka! program is your chance to present your concept to a supportive audience and seasoned mentors to unlock funding and personalized mentorship.The Eureka! Pitch Nights are the live showcase for validated student ventures. Students pitch for their own growth, not against others!

To make sure you are pitch-ready and set up for success at a Pitch Night, all student founders must first attend a Eureka! Idea Bounce and a Customer Discovery Workshop. 

• Idea Bounce is your chance to validate your idea, get essential feedback, and demonstrate that you're prepared to take the stage and unlock the next level of support. These workshops are held Mondays at Noon and Tuesdays at 4 PM.
• The Customer Discovery Workshop will ensure you’re ready to pitch your idea for funding. Scheduling for these workshops opens up after you've completed an Idea Bounce. 

We offer these workshops regularly and strongly encourage you to attend a scheduled session. If the timing absolutely does not work, you may arrange a one-on-one meeting with the Director of the Baker Institute.
