  • 3 Day Startup is an intense, action-packed program focused on entrepreneurship and self-discovery. Students push their limits and build long-lasting friendships while working through the hectic, exhilarating early days of a startup.
  • The 3DS lead organizer will apprentice with Austin’s Maia Patrick Donohue to execute a 3 Day Startup at the university. 3DS has historically been organized and run by individuals who have a passion for startups. Our organizers range from undergrads and PhD students to professors and administrators.
  • Organizing a 3 Day Startup program is a challenging and deeply rewarding endeavor ideal for anyone looking to develop skills in entrepreneurship and educational program development. From start to finish, organizing usually takes 3 to 4 months.The end product is an experience that changes the lives of students throughout the community and builds long-lasting friendships.
  • The lead organizer will build a professional reputation within the community and beyond for being able to deliver a sophisticated entrepreneurship program. The relationships our organizers build with leaders in the community often lead to jobs, internships and a boost for their own startups.
  • 3DS provides the training, tools, and support for local organizing teams to fully plan and organize the program. The various roles of an organizing team entail Operations, Recruitment, Sponsorship and Publicity. 3DS global can even help you find others to join your local organizing team.
  • We send a trained facilitator to run the program to make sure that 3 Day Startup is an unforgettable experience.

Mission Statement

The mission of 3 Day Startup (3DS) is to help university students start companies.

Description

3 Day Startup is an exhilerating window into what it is like to work for a fast-paced startup.

3 Day Startup is also unique in that it is a collaboration (rather than a competition), which has been instrumental in building communities around entrepreneurship at universities around the world.

We secure work space for an entire 3 days, recruit up to 40 participants with a wide range of backgrounds, cater food and drinks, invite top-notch entrepreneurs, mentors, advisers and investors, pick the best ideas for a startup during the day 1 brainstorming session, and release a minimal prototype by the end of day 3.

3 Day Startup is an unforgetable experience for organizers, participants, mentors and panelists.
