Entrepreneurship Club at Virginia Tech
About
The purpose of Entrepreneurship Club is simple: we create a community of individuals who are comfortable and confident in starting projects and building ideas.
We provide connections, knowledge, and inspiration for students to get started. Connections to other like minded-students, plus local and visiting entrepreneurs. Knowledge about entrepreneurship and business principles. Inspiration and encouragement that it can be done!
Our typical initiatives include Treks to innovative cities nationwide, tours of local startups and progressive organizations, workshops to develop relevant skills, Fireside Chats with successful entrepreneurs, pitch competitions, networking, and social events with other student entrepreneurs.
Virginia Tech has had a long history of producing great startups: Ozmo, Shade Inc., Modea, Webmail.us (acquired by Rackspace in 2007), TORC Robotics, Taaluma Totes (seen on Shark Tank), Koofers.com, SkillCapped, Mindsense, Heyo, VirtualU, CardIsle, Follow My Vote, and LawnStarter to name a few. We want this list to be longer.
