Teen Entrepreneurship
The Teen Entrepreneurship Challenge gives high school students the chance to step into the world of business and innovation, made possible through a partnership with the Rist DifferenceMaker Institute at UMass Lowell. Over the course of the semester, students work with mentors to explore entrepreneurship, develop original business ideas, and sharpen their skills in teamwork, leadership, and problem-solving.
The program culminates in a live pitch competition, where students present their ventures to a panel of judges for the chance to win real cash prizes and take their ideas to the next level.
