A GLOBAL COMMUNITY OF THOUSANDS OF EXCEPTIONAL GEN Z ENTREPRENEURS & INNOVATORS LEADING & REDEFINING THE FUTURE
"The SparkTank Startup Accelerator has been an absolute game-changer for me. I had always wanted to launch my own startup but my school did not offer any entrepreneurship classes and guidance to turn my dreams into reality. However, SparkTank provided me with the knowledge, tools, mentorship, and resources to successfully navigate the entrepreneurial landscape. Through their immersive curriculum and events, I not only gained a deep, comprehensive understanding of entrepreneurship fundamentals, but I also developed the confidence and skills to launch my own thriving startup."

The SparkTank Gen Z
Startup Accelerator
The SparkTank Gen Z Startup Accelerator removes systematic barriers to teach you how to build, launch, and scale the unicorn startup of your dreams. Age should not be a barrier to entrepreneurship, and our mission is to prepare students to become confident, articulate, and inspired entrepreneurs and leaders ready to take charge of their future and make their impact on society. Through immersive, action-packed workshops on end-to-end startup development, tailored career events, and hands-on, in-demand skill development challenges, you will receive professional mentoring every step of the way. After 3 months, you will end the accelerator with a deep, comprehensive understanding of entrepreneurship fundamentals, a complete business plan, tangible prototypes, an investor panel pitch deck and presentation, the confidence and skills to scale your thriving startup, and a vast network of exceptional mentors and Gen Z entrepreneurs and innovators.
