About this event

The Startup Sprint is an immersive, high-energy workshop designed to introduce students to the world of AI-powered entrepreneurship. Over the course of two hours, participants will experience the complete startup journey: from identifying a problem worth solving to building and pitching a working AI-based prototype.

Students will form mini-teams, choose a real-world challenge, and leverage AI tools to accelerate every part of the startup process:

  • Ideating and defining the problem

  • Designing user interfaces with AI assistance

  • Generating backend code and APIs using AI coding tools

  • Crafting a simple business model and pitch deck

  • Deploying a live MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

The session concludes with a 1-minute demo pitch battle, where teams showcase their creations to peers and mentors.

Whether you’re a coder, designer, or simply curious about startups, this sprint will teach you how to turn ideas into impact fast. You’ll leave with a working prototype, a mini pitch deck, and a hands-on understanding of how AI is transforming innovation and entrepreneurship.
