New Venture Lab: Learn Business by Doing Business

Learn Business by Doing Business

At the New Venture Lab, we offer free business consulting by our students to local entrepreneurs. Students from all areas of academics apply classroom knowledge to real-world projects.

For students, you will receive valuable insight into what it is like to run a business and put your skills, knowledge and experience to the test to help entrepreneurs tackle their important challenges. Start your time with the New Venture Lab as a consultant and work your way up through leadership as a Project Manager and potentially, Program Director.

For entrepreneurs, your time is valuable, and you may not have the resources to take on new projects that could grow your business. Wondering if a new marketing plan is worthwhile? Looking to expand into new markets? Want feedback on a special offering? Or want help creating a comprehensive business plan for a bold new idea? Our Gonzaga students are ready for the challenge!
