Summer CYstarter Program Applications due March 8
March 5, 2021
Opportunities
- Join a cohort of like-minded students and access educational workshops, accountability sessions, and one-on-one & group mentoring.
- All activities will be held in Ames at the ISU Innovation Core Facility and Student Innovation Center. The program runs from May 17 – July 30, 2021.
- Primary program work will focus on customer discovery, market validation, and business formation.
- Students must apply, be invited to interview, and be accepted to participate in the Cystarters program. The CHS must also sponsor students with funding—in past years we have had 2 to 4 CHS students supported for Cystarters.
- Receive $6,500 per individual applicant or up to $13,000 per team to use for your business start-up and living expenses, no strings attached!
- Accepted Cystarter students can also apply to earn Internship credit for their summer experience, but must coordinate it with their departmental academic advisor.
