WHAT IS VENTURE UP?
Venture Up is THE startup accelerator experience for youth in NZ.
Since 2015, we’ve put over 100 youth aged 17 – 22 into a collaborative space, surrounded them with the best and brightest in the business world and taught them essential leadership skills for their future.
WHO'S INVOLVED?
Venture Up is a programme run by Creative HQ, New Zealand’s Innovation Experts. We’re committed to training up future business leaders through Venture Up.
Our funding partners allow us to offer the programme and keep it accessible.
HOW LONG IS VENTURE UP?
Venture Up runs for four weeks at the beginning of the year. The next Venture Up programme will run from 21 Jan 2019 in Wellington and Queenstown. Sign up to our newsletter for the latest updates.
We are aiming to expand our programmes into regions across New Zealand in the coming years so stay tuned for more information coming soon.
WHO SHOULD APPLY?
Venture Up is for anyone aged between 17 – 22 years in NZ. You must have graduated high school and no, you don’t have to be at university to apply.
You should be prepared to work full-time for four weeks 9-5pm. It’s going to be fun, but it’s also going to be a bunch of hard work. Get ready!
