In May 2019, students in CobraVenture, a cohort of student entrepreneuers at Parkland College, presented their ideas to a panel of judges. The winner received $3000 dollars in seed money to advance their project.
The Parkland Entrepreneurial Network is hosting its second student showcase on Monday, November 16th at 6 p.m. It will livestreamed on Parkland’s YouTube channel, and will feature students from the CobraVenture program’s student accelerator lab.
