Hatchery: Sudent Idea Accelerator Applications OPEN!
Hatchery 2025 Applications OPEN thru March 7!
The Hatchery is a "student idea accelerator." All those who are interested in exploring various ways in which you can identify and then solve the world's most complex, complicated, messy, and wicked problems are encouraged to apply.
You do not need to have already locked into an idea for the next cool app or device. In fact, we'd PREFER you come in fresh and open-minded! We're looking for innovators and disruptors - people who see challenges in the world and run toward them, not away.
If you have the confidence, the drive, and the passion to work with others in order to do something BIG with YOUR IDEAS, then this is the program for you!
Lehigh University's Hatchery: Student Idea Accelerator is powered by The Baker Institute for Entrepreneurship, Creativity, & Innovation.
