The primary purposes and goals of the Entrepreneur Club are to provides students who wish to pursue their own business interests (at some point) a chance to learn more about entrepreneurial opportunities. The club meets one to two times per month, and meetings are devoted to “real world” interactions with successful entrepreneurs.
Members of the Club:
2019 Fall Calendar of Events
Workshops: During these meetings, we will be having hands-on experiences learning skills and techniques to help students start businesses and succeed in the business world.
Focus Groups: During these meetings, students will be working together to throw their ideas around and help each other solve issues and build their ideas. Even if someone doesn’t have an idea for a business, they are encouraged to join!
Speakers: During the semester we will be having three speakers from different companies, these companies are formed by entrepreneurs from Iowa State. Students will be able to ask questions and learn from the experience of a more seasoned individual.
