48-Hour Challenge kicks off Feb. 10.

Experience the highs, lows, fun and pressure of developing a business idea and working in a startup environment. Whether participating for credit or not, all students at Nebraska are welcome to bring a business idea — no matter how developed it is — and form teams to develop those early-stage ideas in this immersive experience.

Undergraduate students may choose to participate for credit by enrolling in ENTR 325 (48-Hour Challenge: Building Entrepreneurial Teams and Testing Ideas), a one-credit-hour pop-up course, OR by registering for the experience for just $10.

The weekend is all centered on action, innovation and education. Beginning with Friday night pitches and continuing through testing, business model development, and basic prototype creation, 48-Hour Challenge culminates in Sunday night demos to a panel of potential investors and local entrepreneurs.

Register by Feb. 8 for the event, which kicks off Friday, Feb. 10, and ends Sunday, Feb. 12, with prizes.
