Student Entrepreneurs
Northeast Ohio is changing. Entrepreneurship and innovation are growing throughout the region, making it a great place to not just get an education, but start a business.

LCCC’s LaunchNET program, funded by The Burton D. Morgan Foundation, offers a full range of activities and events where you can meet with other student entrepreneurs to share your ideas and strategies. The program is co-curricular and offers unlimited coaching for free. You’ll also have access to experienced entrepreneurs who can offer concrete guidance and direction about your business idea.
