Some Fellows design or launch their own venture, while others seek pathways to impact as intrapreneurs, activists, researchers, organizers, conveners, artists, and more. Meet the 2018/2019 Fellows.

The Startup Incubator (CSPL239) is an experiential learning program at Wesleyan led by reSET with support from CTNext. It is designed to teach and enable student entrepreneurs to develop sustainable business models from their ideas. Students apply with a business idea, and in one semester they study their market, design and test a minimum viable product, develop a sustainable financial model, and learn to pitch.
