teen entrepreneur program

The Technocopia STEAM intern entrepreneurship program is a free program for teenagers who reside in Worcester and have an interest in exploring the intersection of art, technology, and entrepreneurship. If you have an idea and feel motivated to start a business or invent something, this program is for you. Join us for a foundation in entrepreneurship, tool trainings in Technocopia's design studios and shops, and product project development. Upon completion of the full program participants can expect to have exercised skills in design, fabrication, and manufacturing, as well as in budgeting and conducting market research. This program will be taught and guided by instructors within and connected to Technocopia, many of whom own their own small businesses and/or are professionals in their craft or trade.

The Program is Free, acceptance competitive!

Applicant selection is heavily based on references, a phone or Zoom interview, and answers submitted in the STEAM teen entrepreneurship intern application.
