Ecopreneurial Summer Innovation Sprint (EcoSprint)

The Ecopreneurial Summer Innovation Sprint (EcoSprint) program offers Stanford graduate students an opportunity to evaluate their own sustainability-focused venture idea full-time for eight (8) weeks over the summer.  The program offers a stipend, weekly coaching, a robust workshop series, and a supportive community.

Entrepreneurial knowledge and skills are best learned by doing. And we believe startup ideas are best evaluated through an immersive process of understanding customer needs, formulating and testing hypotheses about the product or service, value proposition, go-to-market strategy, and value creation model.
