Collegiate Entrepreneurs Summit
This event brings students together with founders, operators, and innovation leaders from across the state to explore how entrepreneurial thinking drives change in any role.
What to Expect
No pitch required. No startup experience necessary.
Just real conversations, hands-on learning, and exposure to what’s possible beyond campus for all majors.
Throughout the day, students will have opportunities to:
Learn from founders and innovators working across Indiana
Participate in interactive workshops and discussions
Explore how ideas turn into real businesses
Connect with peers from universities across the state
Discover pathways to future programs, funding, and support
Anchor & Accelerate: INnovation Challenge
presented by Roll Tack Ventures
In addition to summit sessions, students will have the opportunity to participate in a statewide Innovation Challenge, presented by Roll Tack Ventures, Butler University and CICP.
The Innovation Challenge gives student teams the chance to:
Work on a real-world business problem
Develop a startup concept and business model
Pitch their idea to judges from industry and venture capital
Compete for prizes and recognition
No prototype is required — this challenge is about problem-solving, creativity, and clear thinking, not polished products.
Who Should Attend?
Undergraduate or graduate students from any Indiana college or university
Students curious about startups, innovation, or entrepreneurship
Students interested in pitching ideas or joining cross-university teams
Faculty or staff who support student entrepreneurs
You don’t need a startup. You don’t need a team. You just need curiosity.
