Docu-series that follows 10 entrepreneurial techies looking to make names for themselves while also perhaps bursting others’ bubbles. To do so, they must enter a grueling seven-week program at Draper University, a program led by billionaire founder and venture capitalist Tim Draper. After a semester of learning the fundamentals of launching a startup company under the mentorship of America’s business leaders, the students will pitch their ideas to venture capitalists eager to find the next big tech innovation.
The students move in and give one-minute pitches about their businesses in the series premiere of this reality show in which 10 entrepreneurial young adults are mentored in how to launch a start-up.
The students must devise a new business idea within 36 hours.
The students are separated into teams and challenged to create a ``chain reaction'' machine; Keyonna has problems with her business and her teammates.
Survival week arrives and proves to be strenuous for the students; discord erupts between Keyonna and Sharon, who are both feeling stressed.
