On Friday, November 22, 2024, the Jacobson Institute held an event at DMACC engaging high school students and educators in a one-day, fast paced entrepreneurial excursion. HS students worked in teams with entrepreneurs/business & industry partners to solve problems they face using entrepreneurial solutions that drive innovation forward.  UHS took a group of students who had a very successful day!

There were two PitchPits where student teams pitched their ideas to judges made of area business professionals.

UHS had team members on both winning teams:

• Pitch Pit #1-Narges Khan Mohammad
• Pitch Pit #2-Sean Roberts and Noah Fisher

We also had members on the team who received the most startup money as voted by their peers:

• Startup Investment Winning Team-Olivia Cannon and Courtney Dunn

Congratulations to these UHS students! Keep up the great work! #UHSPride
