Meet the 2025 Summer Venture Program Teams
This summer, 14 student-led startups—spanning industries from health and eco-tourism to AI, tech, and sportswear—are accelerating their ventures through Babson’s Summer Venture Program (SVP).
Facilitated by the Arthur M. Blank Center for Entrepreneurship, SVP is a 10-week intensive experience in an immersive, high-energy environment where student entrepreneurs thrive on each other’s momentum. The program enables startup growth through expert advising, business content, and access to a network of industry experts, founders, and investors and offers resources including housing and co-working space at Babson Boston.
The program culminates in the SVP Showcase on July 31 at Babson Boston, where teams will pitch to the Babson and local startup communities.
The 2025 cohort includes MBA and MSEL students, undergraduates, past Women Innovating Now (WIN) Lab® participants, a recent B.E.T.A. Challenge finalist, and more.
