BizInnovator Startup is a turn-key, online entrepreneurship curriculum. Geared for HS students, BizInnovator Startup combines Design Thinking and the Lean Startup Method, giving your students an interactive, project-based, student-centric entrepreneurial learning environment. BizInnovator Startup is all about the startup process - identifying problems, finding the people (aka customers) who have the problem, learning from them to create a Value Proposition. All planted firmly in the concept that if the solution doesn't generate revenue, there isn't a solution.



Tied to the NBEA Entrepreneurship standards, BizInnovator Startup has six modules, complete with discussion slides, student activities, pitch templates... all the resources you need to create a problem-based, startup-oriented learning environment.



Entrepreneurship educators have the option to participate in BizInnovator Startup professional development, offered online three times each year. Educators who successfully complete the professional development are able to offer their HS students the option to earn transferable college credit from The University of Iowa.



BizInnovator Startup is an entrepreneurship education program, including professional development and curriculum resources, developed by the University of Iowa and approved for use in all 50 states and internationally. This program is delivered by the Jacobson Institute at the University's John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center.
