Welcome to the SparkTank family! We are thrilled to have you join us as a SparkTank Chapter, leading and driving our mission of empowering Gen Z entrepreneurs within your audience. Your dedication and expertise will play a pivotal role in building a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem, providing resources, mentorship, and opportunities for aspiring innovators to design, launch, and scale their own startups. Together, we will break down barriers and ignite the spark of entrepreneurship in the next generation. We are excited to collaborate with you and make a lasting impact on the entrepreneurial landscape. Let's embark on this transformative journey together!
In order to quickly and efficiently onboard all our SparkTank chapters, we have created a fun and engaging guide for you to work through! So, lets begin!
Foster a supportive community of entrepreneurs at your school to grow your entrepreneurial skills and directly impact the future of innovation. Join a community of like-minded entrepreneurs and innovators across 105 chapters and 4 countries. As a registered chapter, you will join the startup accelerator and learn how to build, launch, and scale the unicorn startup of your dreams. Through workshops and events, you will receive professional mentoring every step of the way. At the end of the startup accelerator, you will pitch your startups to a panel of investors at the International SparkTank Investor Panel Competition and compete for $10K in funding.
Applications for the 2023-2024 school year are now being accepted on a rolling basis through August 31, 2023.
Read through your school guidelines and complete any necessary steps to officially register a club. Please read through this onboarding guide (in Notion). Use this as a framework to set up your chapter, and be sure to follow our brand guidelines.
Form an A-talent executive board to bring your SparkTank chapter to life! Use our onboarding guide as a resource when figuring out your team roles (See “Chapter Leadership Roles” in the Resources below). Recruit members (entrepreneurs, innovators, and changemakers) who want to launch their own businesses to join your chapter.
