October 9 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Entrepreneurship starts in the mind. Join us as we launch the first neuroinclusive entrepreneurship workshop, THINK: Executive Functioning and Ideation, which will explore how executive functioning powers planning, prioritizing, and problem-solving.
Through the CAR (Creative, Analytical, and Reflective) problem-solving framework, we will understand the link between executive functioning and entrepreneurship, applying hands-on strategies to real life scenarios. Some of these strategies will include practical tools, visual prompts, and low-pressure collaboration designed for neurodivergent thinkers.

6:00 – 7:30 PM
