If you’re curious about startups but not sure where to start, you’re not alone.
The La Trobe Entrepreneurship Drop-In Series is a new, flexible way for students to explore entrepreneurship, build practical skills and connect with others, all in just one hour.
Held at the Eagleworks Innovation Centre, these sessions are designed to be low-pressure and accessible. There’s no registration, no prerequisites and no need to commit to a full program.
Just drop in, learn something new and take a step towards turning your ideas into action.
What to expect
Each session focuses on a different stage of the entrepreneurial journey, from generating ideas to pitching, prototyping and understanding how to bring a concept to life.
You’ll take part in interactive activities, learn practical skills and hear real insights that can help you shape your thinking and build confidence.
Whether you’ve got a side project, a business idea, or you’re just curious about startups, there’s something here for you.
You don’t need to have a fully formed idea or any experience at all. Sometimes, all it takes is one hour to spark something bigger.
