The Innovation Project and Elevator Pitch is assigned to all applicants and will collected via SchoolMint.

 

This is an entrepreneurial project that challenges students to find an innovative, new use for a common everyday item. 

 

Directions: Brainstorm creative new uses for a water bottle. Other materials, such as glue, tape, and paint may be incorporated into the design as long as the challenge item is the primary component of the final product.

You are creating the actual product.

Record a 3-minute (max) Shark Tank-style pitch video of the invention.

Explain your product and its function. What problem does it solve? How will you market your product? Who is your target market? Where can I purchase the product?

Also, answer the following questions at the END of your video:
1. Why would you like to join the Meadowbrook Academy for Developing Entrepreneurs?
2. What qualities do you have that make you a good entrepreneur?
3. What obstacles do you think entrepreneurs face and how can they overcome them?
