Student Groups

The University of Michigan boasts some of the most passionate student entrepreneurs in the world. Through student groups such as MPowered, Michigan Hackers, China Entrepreneur Network, and TEDx, U-M students have organized to run business pitch competitions, startup weekends, small business career fairs, hackathons, and all-day conferences.

Startup Treks

During these annual trips, CFE takes students to Chicago, New York, the Bay Area, and Boston to meet local entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and U-M alumni. Students are given exclusive tours of startup companies, as well as the opportunity to pitch their ideas to a panel of experts. Students return to campus with valuable feedback on their ideas, new mentors, and a network of fellow U-M student entrepreneurs.
