Entrepreneurship 

We will be delving into the exciting area of entrepreneurship during our Winterim program. We will think of ways to enhance or modify existing products, and then think of new ones. During our journey, we will visit local businesses in the Front Range including factories, restaurants, and other enterprises of interest.

As a group, we will investigate how to start a business, finance it, and market it. This Winterim is for those students who have always thought they could improve something, or have wondered why a particular business exists, who its customers are, and why it is located where it is. At the end of this week, you can start to answer the question: How can I start a business?

Educational Goals:

1. Learn how to start a business.

2. Understand how to improve upon an existing product.

3. Create an entirely new product or service.
