About the Program
The Center for Entrepreneurial Studies at Rider University offers a free, eight week entrepreneurship program in the summer. This program will have veterans develop a business plan to explore a venture idea or guide an existing business, and will take place at Rider's Lawrenceville campus. It will be run in two phases. Phase one will have veterans develop their business concept. This concept must be finalized before moving onto phase two, the full business plan creation process. Only veterans whose business concept is approved by the program can move into phase two because to build a business plan at this rapid pace, it has to come from a solid concept. Included in this business plan development program are two additional workshops: one on accounting fundamentals and the other on business research skills.
The class size is limited to 20 students to allow for instructor feedback and individualized attention, which is vital during the business plan creation process.
Upon completion of the program, veterans will receive one year of mentoring as they pursue their venture dreams.
