14-18 year olds are invited to the Startup Venture Challenge (SVC) provided by the Catholic University of America, where they will launch a business or social venture inspired by the True, the Good, and the Beautiful in the course of a 10-week virtual startup bootcamp.
SVC is an intensive 10-week challenge where participants will be guided through the process of identifying, developing, and launching a business that provides goods that are truly good or services that truly serve. Each participant will be partnered with a Catholic business mentor to help guide them and given weekly challenges to help them get a new venture off the ground by the end of the bootcamp. During the weekly live meetings, participants will learn from guest business leaders.
The Startup Venture Challenge is part of the Catholic Entrepreneurship and Design Experience (CEDE) at the Busch School of Business at the Catholic University of America.
