Turn a crisis into a career!
This summer, we’re challenging our campers to think like CEOs and survivalists. Imagine being stranded in a remote area after a plane crash. What do you need to survive? How do you calm the nerves of fellow travelers? Campers will dive into real-life survival stories to identify “pain points” and engineer a product designed to solve the ultimate problem: surviving the unthinkable.
From mastering the 4 P’s of Marketing to delivering a high-impact Elevator Pitch, this program blends creative design with hard-hitting business logic. Whether your camper is a budding designer or a future executive, they’ll leave with an addition to their professional portfolio and the to make their entrepreneurial dreams a success.
Lunch is provided everyday at camp.
Program Highlights
- An immersive business case study where teams design products to solve the challenges of remote survival and flight anxiety.
- Direct instruction from SF faculty on visual branding, color psychology, the “4 P’s of Marketing,” and startup logistics.
- Moving from “The Big Idea” to “The Build” by creating physical or digital MVPs (Minimum Viable Products).
