Incredible opportunity for students to have the Austin entrepreneur experience while networking with inspiring and diverse professional role models, empowering them with self-confidence in their own abilities.

The JA E2 experience kicks off in the classroom with JA It's My Business!® or JA Be Entrepreneurial® These programs introduce students to the process of design thinking as a problem- solving process and provides an authentic entrepreneurial experience for students with each session building toward a pitch competition.

On the day of the JA E2 field trip- students are paired with mentors to help refine their presentation, practices public speaking, etc... The day concludes with a pitch competition complete with a panel of judges.

E2 was designed to empower students to discover their future potential, continue developing their entrepreneurial mindset, meet new people, and build confidence while having fun!
