Spring vibes, fresh starts

Cornerstone helps students from any faculty who are enthusiastic to explore their potential ideas, and that want to join a like-minded community over two weeks to take action.

The Cornerstone program is focused on getting outside the university to speak to potential customers and simplifies the process of taking the next step, building confidence, and opening doors to build your idea for real.

No pitch deck. No pressure. No technical skills required
Cornerstone is Velocity’s challenge where over two weeks you’ll test your idea, potentially meet your first users, and build confidence in your idea. You’ll join a supportive community of students who are all taking their first steps into entrepreneurship — with coaching, mentorship, and the chance to win prizes.
