Dalhousie Entrepreneurship Society (DES) has done tremendous work in the short amount of time they have had since the society was created. Most of the activities and events that we will host will be under DES because it will give us the platform and power to be in touch with students who have show some interest in I&E. The DES will be our main hub that will allow us to get funding and reach the maximum number of students, stakeholder and investors. Our main goal this year is to get increased involvement from students, and for that, we need some funding to be able to bring value to them where they will have the incentive to join our society and take part in our activities.{{#Widget:Youtube|id=TVR_IMkCNZ0}}
== <span style="font-size:large;"> Get a biweekly newsletter sent out to students</span> ==(Prepared by Yaser Alkayale and Seline Dogan)
Our main issue around campus right now is to to get the word out and to get students involved with entrepreneurship and to pursue their ideas. After a lot of customer discover, we find that a newsletter to get the word out would be the ideal way to let students, faculty and alumni know about our activities and events that we are hosting. To get people to sign up for our newsletter, we will host regular draws for wearables to give incentive to students to give us their contact information so we can keep them posted. To get the word out at the start, we will set tables around the main and Campus campuses at Dalhousie to get students aware of our newsletter and society.
== <span style="font-size:large;">Promote the use of the collider by hosting regular workshops and events that will attract students from all faculties and get them excited about entrepreneurship and innovation</span> ==
As part of our initiative to get more students involved from all faculties, we will be hosting regular events and workshops for students to gain all the skills they need to run a startup. These workshops have to be regular so students get to know the schedule and come as they have available time. The workshops will be hosted by guest speakers and facilitated by volunteers. The topics we wish to cover include coding for beginners, design, making effective phone calls, and much more.= OVERVIEW =
== Have Dalhousie University is located in the heart of Halifax in Nova Scotia, Canada. Local startup ecosystem in Halifax is still at its growing stage. There have been several champions working on developing the ecosystem, but only very recently has the government started to put more pressure on universities to promote entrepreneurship and facilitate deeper connection with the local startup community. Based on this initiative there was a hackathon series group of political, academic and business leaders formed called oneNS Coalition. The mandate of oneNS Coalition is to be hosted regularlyinstill further growth in the region and a 10 year plan for economic development and sustainability. One of the major topics is entrepreneurship and innovation. ==
We want Going through the training to challenge become University Innovation Fellow, we had a great opportunity to get out of the idea that hackathons are only tech-related. In order building and talk to get large amount of students and faculty member from all backgrounds across the campus and map out our campus landscape and faculties involved then we have recognize some of the major shortcomings that need to host hackathons for different disciplines like a hackathon for computer science, one for health sciences and another for ocean sciencebe addressed. DES started the first student-led hackathon for marine science called Hackamarine, and it One of our findings was that students are not very successful. Our plan is to keep hackamarine running annually and get other monthly hackathons aware of the resources and call it possiblities the E&I community can offer them at Dalhousie Hackathon Series (DHS)and Halifax. We will partner with different organizations Although, some students are aware of some societies, events and faculties spaces that are offered to ensure them, majority of the success students are in the mindset that the resources are mostly for business students at Dalhousie. This creates a lack of each and every hackathoncross-faculty interaction under E&I.
== Keep improving The Sexton Engineering Campus at Dalhousie University is physically isolated from the relationship between main campus, Studley. This hinders the opportunity for full collaboration within the main campus. We believe that cross-faculty collaboration is essential for further growth of our startup ecosystem. A great example of this is a company called Spring Loaded, where three students from various faculties met in the Starting Lean Course, came up with an idea for a new generation of knee braces and Sexton rose over $1.8 million in seed financing to date. In addition to that, Dalhousie university is commited to make engineering campus so we reach for the maximum number of studentsupcoming $64M Innovation hub, IDEA project. ==
The Sexton campus Dalhousie Entrepreneurship Society (D.E.S.) has always been secluded from done tremendous work in the short amount of time they have had since the Dalhousie main campus where most society was created. Most of the activities take place, but our plan is to change and events thatwe will host will be under D. There are a lot of very bright engineering E.S. because it will give us the platform and power to be in touch with students who have shown some interest in E&I. The D.E.S. will be our main hub that have many ideas will allow us to get funding and reach the skills maximum number of students, stakeholder and investors. Our main goal this year is to execute themget increased involvement from students, but are not given the tools to do so. Through our long term plan and DESfor that, our plan is we need some funding to be able to keep students from the Sexton campus up-bring value to-date with all of our workshops and events so them where they stay involved with will have the other students. We will also hold some of incentive to join our events on the Sexton campus so students find the convenience society and start attending take part in our eventsactivities.

As mentioned above, the hackathons will be a great way to get all students involved in different fields and to start to get them innovating. The hackathons will have different themes, but they will all be open to all students so everyone is welcome to join and learn about the different topics. We believe this will be a great way to attract students from all around dalhousie and get them together working on great ideas. Having traditional hackathons is great, but adding different topics and inviting the general student body will ensure high attendance numbers and excitement for everyone.
== Tactic no.2: Make Hackathons inviting for any student all over the four campuses of Dalhousie University. ==
We decided to call all the students around all four campuses into action! Sending out emails, hanging posters on the walls, creating social media invitations etc. We are dedicated to grab the attention of students in different faculties. We want to show students that E&I isn't only for engineering and business students.
= Strategy #6 - Encouraging Cross-Faculty Understanding and Shared Experience =
In order to enhance the interaction between students across faculties, we aim to launch a class-exchange system where they can take the classes with students from other faculties in a monthly basis. The way how it works is that some specific classes from each faculty would offer up to 10 students per month, to voluntarily take a part in the class. The potential outcomes of this system would let students walk into the shoes of others in terms of academic lives of one to another. In addition to that, they can connect and get to know students from variety of faculty for a greater ability to form a diverse team once they decide to take their innovative ideas and start working on it as entrepreneurs.
== Tactic no.1: Get in touch with stakeholders to ensure the success of exchange system ==
Class exchange initiative deeply relies on the collaborative support and dedication of various stakeholders on campus. To ensure that the initiative will be successfull, the idea should be clearly delivered to the deans and professors. In this regard, we plan to have meetings to receive their feedback on the class exchange system. We believe this would lead for a better continuation by having the prior aggrement and commitment of affiliated stakeholders.
= Strategy #7 - Creation of a Beginner-Oriented LaunchDAL Sub-brand =
Beginners feel alienated in the status quo with regards to entrepreneurship activities. They have a perception that they do not have the "right stuff", that it is too difficult, that it is reserved only for business majors, etc. In order to fill the gap and correct these misconceptions, we will strive to create friendlier and more approachable branding for all existing and future entrepreneurship activities, as well as simply informative promotion with regards to beginners that will strive for inclusivity and approachability.
This will be a part of a larger marketing/promotional campaign for entrepreneurship events on campus. This campaign will be supplemented by CKDU (university radio) spots, the creation of a unified informational/update system (D.E.S. Facebook group), and other such initiatives.
== Tactic no.1: Get feedback from entrepreneurship beginners on approachability of promotional material ==
To achieve this approachability and friendly marketing, we will run marketing by actual students and get feedback vis-a-vis these characteristics that we are striving for.
