At UpStarts we believe in youth empowerment, solving hard problems, and fine execution. We intend to help entrepreneurs to thrive. We nurture youth to develop both cognitive and non-cognitive skills through experiential learning. UpStarts Academy aims to help educators successfully instill these ideals in high school aged youth.
Hello, we are the UpStarts Team
We are driven by real impact. We embrace new possibilities and challenging projects. Through rigorous research and experimentation, we continuously develop our programs. Creating entrepreneurial opportunities in global rural communities is what we aim for. We are based in the center of the U.S. and have a solid team of specialists and supporters, offering a wide range of disciplines and global perspectives.
"We really want to thank this program for helping us, I guess, step in the right direction in entrepreneurship and coding. We learned a lot on how to help businesses and just identify the solutions and identify problems and then build solutions off of that... just having like a real world problem and building a real world solution. They threw us in and it really gave us this powerful learning experience to help us in the future."
