JA E2 offers students a unique Austin entrepreneurial experience, connecting them with diverse professionals and building their self-confidence. The program begins in the classroom with JA It's My Business!® or JA Be Entrepreneurial®, where students learn design thinking and entrepreneurial skills through sessions that lead up to a pitch competition.
On the field trip day, students work with coaches to polish their presentations and practice public speaking. The day culminates in a pitch competition judged by a panel.
E2 is designed to inspire students to discover their potential, develop an entrepreneurial mindset, and build confidence in a fun, supportive environment
