Entrepreneurship Club at WLSA Purpose of the Club Looking through the list of major clubs at top universities in the US, one could find entrepreneurship club/association has been in the spotlight of American school culture and business schools.
Entrepreneurship Club at WLSA aims to provide a conduit by which high school students can learn more aspects of business, access relevant entrepreneurial resources, network with prominent community entrepreneurs, and share ideas to offer more practical entrepreneurial suggestions to solve social issues.
Our club fosters creative thinking among the student body at WLSA. Our mission is to provide a pool of resources for student entrepreneurs to pursue ventures during their high school years, meet business professionals, and compete in international entrepreneurship contests, helping them stand out during the application process for their pre-business career path.
We are a tight network of students interested in technology, design, and entrepreneurship that generate social changes and impacts.
