Turn your ideas into impact! This hands-on workshop will guide you through creative ideation techniques and help you shape your concepts into strong value propositions that solve real problems. Whether you’re exploring entrepreneurship or just want to sharpen your innovative thinking, you’ll leave with practical tools to generate ideas, test them, and clearly explain why they matter.

In each of the five Innovation Workshop Series workshops, you’ll work with a professional who’s an expert in the field, from ideation to customer discovery to prototyping to storytelling. You can drop into any one workshop or attend them all—think of it like choosing which tools you need for problem-solving. Whether you want to build keg-powered bikes in your garage or learn some of the skills you’ll need to set yourself apart when you’re applying for jobs, we invite you to come build cool stuff with us in these sandbox-style workshops.

*Please note, you do NOT have to attend one session in order to attend another. Please come to whatever interests you that works with your schedule!

The Innovation Workshop Series is hosted by the University of Colorado Boulder Leeds School of Business Deming Center for Entrepreneurship and the College of Engineering and Applied Science Idea Forge.
