IDEA TO ENTREPRENEUR
A new workshop for prospective founders led by Chris Heivly
April 16-17, 2021
Do you have an idea for a new business, but don’t know where to start?
This interactive workshop, led by Chris Heivly (Techstars, Mapquest), will provide the mindset and initial tools needed to grow your idea from “seed” to “startup.”
Chris Heivly is a leading expert in how to turn an idea into a multimillion-dollar business. Dubbed “the startup whisperer”, Chris has led entrepreneur accelerator programs reaching hundreds of startups across the country.
No experience necessary
This workshop is specifically geared towards first-time founders at the “idea stage” of your entrepreneurial journey. All you need is an idea, and the motivation to build something from it.
In order to ensure a valuable experience for all participants, the workshop will be limited to idea-stage entrepreneurs. If you are a later stage entrepreneur interested in accessing resources and trainings through the American Underground, email us!
DATES, TIMES & DETAILS
- Friday, April 16 — 5pm-7pm
- Saturday, April 17 — 9am–5pm
Day 1 is a two-hour evening session for Chris and participants to meet, eat, and get to know each other. Day 2 is a full day working session to dig deep into the workshop material.
This is an in-person workshop at the American Underground, with COVID-precautions in place (masks, social distance, ventilation) to ensure the safety of the group.
The workshop cost is $20 which includes a copy of Chris Heivly’s Build the Fort and an AU swag bag.
TURN YOUR IDEA INTO A REALITY
“Chris’ workshop provided thoughtful advice from an expert in the startup ecosystem as well as hands-on activities to help me actually implement what I had just learned moments prior, striking the perfect balance between learning and doing. I left the workshop feeling energized and equipped to take the next step on my entrepreneurial journey. I’d recommend it to anybody with an idea that they want to turn into a reality!”
