<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">The 3-Day Startup is a foundation which promotes entrepreneurial and innovation on campuses. The main focus of this process is to teach by doing. Ideally, the goal of this project is to take a wide variety of students and allowing them to experience the importance of innovation and entrepreneurial skills needed to create a start-up company. During the 3 days students are lead through the following modules; </span></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">ideation- the process of coming up with ideas and concepts; </span></span>*<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">team formation- voting on the top idea to expand on within the next steps; </span></span>*<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">customer discovery- identifying what potential customers would want/ need; </span></span>*<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">rapid prototyping- figuring out the logistics of the idea/ concept; </span></span>*<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">pitch workshops- presenting the finalized project to stakeholders. </span></span> <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;">The first-day students are asked to come up an idea for a company. The students collaborate, vote, and pick the top idea and begin to expand upon. The second-day students are introduced to potential customers. This gives students the opportunity to see how to make their idea more valuable to companies and investors. After the idea has been transformed into a company and has been prototyped it is presented on the third day to the stakeholders. </span></span>
