Join the College of Performing Arts (CoPA) and the Leatherby Center for Entrepreneurship and Business Ethics as we celebrate the graduating cohort of the CoPA Entrepreneurship Intensive! Watch talented performing artists showcase their entrepreneurial ideas and pitch their ventures following their journey through the startup incubator program.
Performing artists, including dancers, musicians, and actors, are often entrepreneurs themselves, managing everything from personal branding and marketing to client relationships, invoicing, and finances. This program equips participants with the entrepreneurial skills and confidence to turn their creative talents into sustainable business opportunities.
Through hands-on learning, mentorship, and real-world application, participants explore innovative ideas, develop their business strategies, and strengthen their ability to present and pitch to potential collaborators and investors. The program provides a supportive environment to experiment, learn from challenges, refine ideas, and take meaningful steps toward launching a venture.
