RSO - Entrepreneurship Club

Welcome to the Umass Entrepreneurship Club Campus Pulse Page.

Our Club was founded to support student entrepreneurs at the University of Massachusetts and to foster and empower the spirit of entrepreneurship on our campus. To do this, we help students step aside from safe careers to pursue their innovative ideas and ingenious inventions in crafting a more fulfilling life.

We, the University of Massachusetts Entrepreneurship Club aim to inspire, educate, and assist the campus community through events, meet-ups, and speakers in order to help build teams, products, businesses, and people who think like entrepreneurs. The Board of Entrepreneurship provides the resources needed to grow and develop ideas, projects, and businesses. We help students turn ideas into actionable plans. We hereby ordain and establish this Charter of the University of Massachusetts Entrepreneur Council at Amherst.

Every fall semester, we hold a competition called ULaunch. This is an opportunity for students to form a team, start a business, and compete for funding in just one weekend. We host case competitions in the spring semester that have participants work with a business to solve various problems and issues the business needs help with. The winners have a chance to have their idea implemented in real time with the business! 

Furthermore, we want to plan a field day to attract new and old members alike. We also plan to hold a concert to showcase music entrepreneurs and unite our community. Lastly, we hold weekly meetings including fun, interactive activities and impressive speakers while maintaining a strong, innovative community. The meetings are networking, social entrepreneurship, LevelUp, and guest speakers.

If you are interested, come join us! No prior experience is needed - just a thirst for knowledge and a desire to meet new friends.
