Course Overview

Aspiring entrepreneurs and inventors--this is the camp for you! Our middle school campers will work in small groups throughout the week to identify a problem (whether big or small) and then brainstorm, strategize, and design a product that can fix the problem! We will take a look at examples from the show Shark Tank and also a history of inventions and products that were a hit with consumers. The groups will spend the week working on their designs, researching and identifying who their prime consumer base might be, designing advertising campaigns and marketing plans, finances, and more! Creativity, strategy, economics, and salesmanship all combine in this interactive and team-based camp!The groups will present their product to our own Shark Tank at the end of the week!

Please Note: For your camper's safety and their overall educational experience at camp, it is necessary that they have the ability to converse in and understand English.
Please Note: Niner Academy and many 49er Minor camps are considered college-preparatory and/or career readiness camp programs for teens. Often through guest speakers, during field trips, and through class and peer-driven discussion, we may discuss societal and social issues. Campers' opinions and perspectives may differ from those of their peers and/or guest speakers; we encourage open discussion during camp. We seek to establish a camp environment where all voices are heard and opinions are respected.
Please Note: We rely on guardian discretion to select camp topics that are best suited for their child individually. Be sure to consider your child’s interests, personality, and developmental level when choosing the right camp.
Please Note: We rely on guardian discretion for appropriate dress at camp. We ask that our participants dress in a way that allows them to engage in camp activities and remain safe while doing so. Please refrain from wearing discriminatory terms, logos, pictures, cartoons, or slogans. Specific dress requirements may occur depending on the camp activity. This will be communicated in advance to guardians by our instructors.
