CLARK TANK
Venture Development
Clark Tank Venture Development is our signature event. Venture Development runs from fall into early spring, and provides initial seed funding to students with small businesses and social ventures. The students work with mentors, alumni, and faculty to develop their businesses. At the end of the months-long event, the top ventures will present to a panel of judges in hopes of additional funding.

OUR INSTRUCTOR
Fourteen Clark University students participated in a two-day, Friday and Saturday, intense business plan development boot camp with instructor Shane Scott from Entrenuity and put their skills to the test. The participants ranged from graduate students to first-years, and athletes to art majors, but all had business development on their minds!
