Entrepreneurship for undergrads
Entrepreneurship for undergraduates
Entrepreneurship is a multi-faceted endeavour. Our programs are designed to meet you where you are — whether you want to build a startup, solve a problem, or simply expand your skillset beyond the classroom.
Entrepreneurial thinking is a buzz phrase these days. Those who embody an entrepreneurial mindset will enter the workforce with an edge above the rest. With our various programs, the Hunter Hub is here to help you make an impact and get future-ready.
Why entrepreneurship?
Post-secondary school is your time to learn, fail, and grow. It's a season for experimentation. Our mission is to help you along your journey as you aim high and learn something about yourself along the way. And who knows? You might just create the career of your dreams.
When engaging with our programs, you can solve a social problem as a changemaker, start your own venture, or learn the skills you need to innovate within an existing business as an employee. The possibilities are endless.
