About Fairfield StartUp
Fairfield StartUp is a year-long entrepreneurship program where students create, develop and pitch their own business ideas! The program concludes with the Fairfield StartUp Showcase; a “Shark Tank” style entrepreneurship competition. Students get the opportunity to negotiate live with investors for seed money to start their business. $30K was awarded last year! Students participating in StartUp work alongside alumni and local business mentors throughout the year to hone their business ideas and pitch presentations skills for the final showcase on April 18th. Interested in competing? Join us at a Fairfield StartUp Event where you will learn how to launch your own business idea and create or join a team.
