Husky startup challenge

Northeastern’s Startup Incubator

The Husky Startup Challenge (HSC) is the flagship program of the Entrepreneurs Club.  During this semester-long startup incubator and pitch competition, students have the opportunity to turn their ideas into reality.  Join our weekly boot camps, speaker events, and networking opportunities to build your own business.

The program culminates in Demo Day, a celebration of student-innovation where participants pitch their businesses and prototypes to Northeastern alumni, investors, faculty, industry leaders, and more.

HSC is open to all students, regardless of their background or skillset.  Join us every Saturday!  (Dates are below.)

Testimonials from Previous Participants:

Keith Corso, Founder of BusRight

The Husky Startup Challenge not only provides student-founders the foundation to start a business, but it also ensures that you are connected with the right resources at Northeastern University and the greater Boston venture community to develop, build, and scale your company.

Julie Rhee & Henry Tan, Founders of HOMEDOT.

Surrounding yourself with passionate young entrepreneurs will ignite your inner passion and inspiration which is why we joined HSC.  As aspiring entrepreneurs, this program helped us streamline the entire process from having a simple idea until the ready stage to start your venture.

Hannah Meiseles, Founder of Epidemik

This program is the best way to not only get to know the entrepreneurship community on campus but also to have the community get to know you.  Through HSC, I discovered more about the power of an idea than I could have through any other program, and that lesson has guided me throughout my journey in college.
