Videos

In an age where media is a driving force in the community, entrepreneurs have the ability to view conferences from across the country with one click of the mouse.  This page includes footage of workshops, entrepreneurship competitions, and interviews with entrepreneurs and advice on developing ideas into a successful business.  

Links

CNVE offers links to various resources targeted at students actively exploring starting—or buying—your own business. Most graduates wait until they have a high potential idea they are truly passionate about, often stemming from in-depth experience in a market and exposure to unsatisfied customer needs. Such an experience may be tough to get within the bounds of a full-time educational experience.

Local community and statewide resources

A vast amount of entrepreneurship resources are housed within the Brazos Valley or its surrounding areas. CNVE has comprised a list of the local centers and funding sources for the aspiring entrepreneur.
