3 Day Startup

3 Day Startup is an experiential entrepreneurship program where participants go through the initial stages of starting a business.

About

3 Day Startup delivers intensive, hands-on entrepreneurship education programs to students at colleges and university campuses across the globe.

We have been developing our curriculum across 12 years, at over 500 programs, in over 200 schools. And over that time, our network of student entrepreneurs and mentors has grown to over 16,000.

Using the data collected from each of these programs, we have created a structure that activates the entrepreneurial potential of college and university students and helps them go from early-stage idea to viable venture over three days.

Bringing a 3 Day Startup program to your school is not just committing to a 3-day bootcamp. 3DS is a tested, proven model geared towards growing and developing your entrepreneurial ecosystem for students of all disciplines and backgrounds.

Over the course of 3 intensive days, the workshop introduces startup-based skills, which are then applied to business concepts chosen by program participants. Topics covered in this workshop include business idea generation and selection, customer primary research, business framework development, Lean Canvas creation, development of go-to-market strategies, and pitching a startup. Curriculum is continually managed and updated by 3 Day Startup Org., a 501(c)3 nonprofit, and delivered by trained facilitators.
