Fairfield StartUp is a yearly program of events designed to foster young entrepreneurial talent at Fairfield University through engagement with mentors and investors drawn from alumni and local business communities.
Starting with the Kickoff in September, prospective students are shepherded through a sequence of educational, networking and mentoring events designed to help them ideate and articulate their business models, recruit teams and mentors and attract partners and other resources needed to start their businesses.
The program culminates each year at the StartUp Showcase, where students negotiate live with investors for seed money to start their businesses.
