Neuroinclusive Entrepreneurship: Turning Passion Into Profit – Think

Event Series (See All)

August 11 @ 6:00 pm 7:30 pm

This 3-part workshop series is designed specifically with neurodivergence in mind and explores how to turn your interests and vision into a viable business idea.

Part 1, Think, considers how executive functioning powers planning, prioritizing, and problem-solving.

Through our CAR Framework – Creative, Analytical, and Reflective Problem-Solving – we’ll explore the link between executive functioning and entrepreneurship, then apply hands-on strategies to real scenarios.

Participants can expect practical tools, visual prompts, and low-pressure collaboration designed for neurodivergent thinkers. Leave with an entrepreneurial problem-solving toolkit that’s tailored to you!

Tuesday, August 11
