🚀 I’m excited to share an update on a dynamic initiative at Illinois Wesleyan University designed to empower student innovators and entrepreneurs! As many of you know, IWU is committed to fostering creativity, collaboration, and conscience-driven ventures. We’re amplifying this commitment through the launch of the Student-Made Store IWU Feasibility Study. 🌐 We envision a future where students discover their passions, develop innovative ideas, and shape a better world through the power of their creations. This two-month campaign will help us identify talented student creators across the IWU campus and gauge their interest in offering their products/services through a customized online marketplace. We’ll also explore the value for students to gain hands-on experience as Student-Managers operating the platform. 💡 This initiative aligns perfectly with The Petrick Idea Center's mission to foster collaborative, cross-discipline creativity with a conscience. 💡 We believe in empowering students to make an impact now, and this study will help us determine how Student-Made can become a valuable platform for our Titans to launch their entrepreneurial ventures. 💡 The Petrick Idea Center strives to create an atmosphere where students power the virtuous solutions to vital problems. 💡 Student-Made provides students with tangible experience in a start-up company environment. 💡 We’re hopeful that this study will demonstrate the excitement surrounding this program and how it can further connect our campus community.
