Franke Venture Studio

What F-Word are we talking about? Failure, of course!
Learn how to look at failure as a critical mindset, one that everyone—entrepreneurs, especially—should embrace. We’ll show you how your failures can lead to success!

Entrepreneurs need to be comfortable seeking out and using feedback. (It’s useful for everyone, really—whether you’re in classes or creating a business.) You will learn why that feedback loop is so important and one way to do it in this workshop.

To better your chance to go to NYC for the Venture Studio/Parsons hackathon, come pitch your idea. It is great practice for a central skill too.

You have three minutes. Inspire us.  Go! This workshop will be an opportunity to stand up and show out and get feedback on the pitch for your amazing startup idea.

Every entrepreneur needs a powerful, inspiring pitch deck - in layman’s terms, a presentation. We will share the elements - message and design - that are needed.

A great idea is a great starting point but we need to create a value map that builds genuine delight into our solutions. 

From the jump, we need an idea. How do you find one? Better yet, a great one. We will workshop how to build a customer profile that can lead to a great startup.

Sally Chung, Parsons School of Design in NYC, will kickoff our joint year-long program on AI, design, and startups leading to a NYC hackathon in February.

Come check out our new Franke Honor's program! Here is your chance to learn what The Venture Studio is all about and connect with other students interested in developing and exploring their entrepreneurial chops.
