DO U
DO U Entrepreneurship is a student organization that unifies undergraduates from all years and all areas of study through innovation, ideation and inspiration.
The DU Entrepreneurship environment fosters creativity, aspiration and grit that transform dreams into reality. It’s a safe space for freedom of thought, expression, mistakes and failures. The entrepreneurship club is a gateway for the average DU student to enter the world of risk, uncertainty, and reward. Ultimately, students are encouraged to do what they have always dreamed of doing; to DO U.
Members don’t need to be enrolled in a business class or be a member of the Daniels College of Business. All are encouraged to participate, innovate and pursue their passions. Join DO U.

Our Vision
We aim to bring together DU students from every program and any school of thought and introduce them to entrepreneurial studies. Students of all levels and backgrounds will be provided a space that caters directly to what they wish to aspire, whether that is to increase personal hard or soft skills, receive inspiration and brainstorming, practice hands-on activities, or other entrepreneurial endeavors. Activities will be hosted for more developed entrepreneurs to learn and get connected with more experienced entrepreneurs, as well as for entrepreneurs who simply have an impactful idea and need guidance in taking the initial step.
