Idea Fund Office Space
Description
Social entrepreneurship empowers citizens to leverage their diverse skill sets, solving problems through innovation and creativity. ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app provides students with a liberal arts education that encourages interdisciplinary collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving. The Idea Fund creates a forum through which students may exercise those skills in the Dickinson community. We envision a community that uses top quality academia to innovate and enact positive change.
Our mission is to empower students to identify and solve problems in the community by equipping and connecting them with the skills, networks, and resources to effectively design and implement viable projects. We achieve these goals through our three main services: . All students are welcome to receive Project Consulting, designed to aid students in writing business proposals, applying for funds, building teams, and networking in the Dickinson community.
Projects that request funding from the Idea Fund must (1) Propose solutions that improve the ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app community, (2) Be proposed by an enrolled ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app student, and (3) Complete Parts A through C of the Business Plan Template (concept, model, and plan of action).
