Designed\u00a0with\u00a0students and young adults in mind, the program is designed to grow leaders, provide business operation education\u00a0through world renowned speakers such as Elon Musk, and teach the tech tools needed to build\u00a0a concept from ideation to revenue,\r\n\r\nThe 9 month program will be action-based learning divided into 3 modules. The first focuses on ideation and product market fit, the second teaches the technology tools required to build the company such as CAD and iOS\/Android programming, and the third focuses on marketing and sales applications. At the end of the program students have the opportunity to pitch their business during demo day to various Silicon Valley investors including Tim Draper. During the entire program, students live, learn and grow in San Mateo, CA at the Draper University campus.\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"678\" style=\"max-width: 100%;display: block;\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-image-470\" src=\"https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329-1024x678.jpg?strip=all\" alt=\"DSC_8329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329-1024x678.jpg?strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329-300x199.jpg?strip=all 300w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329-768x509.jpg?strip=all 768w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329-420x278.jpg?strip=all 420w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329.jpg?strip=all 2000w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329.jpg?strip=all&amp;w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8329.jpg?strip=all&amp;w=1600 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\r\n\r\nASU juniors and seniors selected for the incubator get to build their business in Silicon Valley while earning up to 30 ASU credits and an entrepreneurship certificate from W.P.

This includes leadership hero workshops, CMS, basic CAD, introductory programming techniques, sales and communication classes all hosted and taught by actual entrepreneurs and business leaders. The rigorous classes will go from 10 am to 8 pm every day with no two days being the same. Every day offers a different class, mentor, and experience with the primary goal of getting students to a solid minimum viable product.\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"678\" style=\"max-width: 100%;display: block;\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-image-471\" src=\"https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448-1024x678.jpg?strip=all\" alt=\"DSC_8448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448-1024x678.jpg?strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448-300x199.jpg?strip=all 300w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448-768x509.jpg?strip=all 768w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448-420x278.jpg?strip=all 420w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448.jpg?strip=all 2000w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448.jpg?strip=all&amp;w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/et3ukr3n7ug.exactdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/DSC_8448.jpg?strip=all&amp;w=1600 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\r\n\r\nRoman Stephan from Anchorage Alaska is\u00a0a junior at ASU seeking a BS in Entrepreneurship is currently attending the program.
