WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF STUDENT POWERED INNOVATION

BORN FROM NECESSITY

Because success can not happen in a vacuum

Startups & Scholars was founded on the belief that every great idea deserves a talented team behind it. Our mission from day one has always been to connect our local innovators with the talent they need to execute their dreams. We believe that having the proper support network is essential to combat the many stressors of running a successful business when your time and energy are low. This is why we tap into the most underutilized workforce in America, college students. These talented, creative, and hardworking scholars need experience working with real companies and are ready to assist in any way they can.
