The University of San Diego Entrepreneurship Department is a place for inspiration and innovation on our campus and beyond. We are a team of current and prospective young entrepreneurs with a mission to make a positive impact to our local and global community. Every year, we host the V2 (Venture Vetting) competition, an initiative some call “Shark Tank meets Academia.” The V2 Competition provides
an amazing a rich learning experience and an opportunity at “real” seed money to kickstart your venture. This entrepreneur competition has tripled in the number of entrants and audience participation has grown since its debut. The total amount of funding and awards for student ventures has risen from $15,000 to $100,000. Finally, we manage the entrepreneurial relations for students on campus, whether it's linking them to mentors, finding internships at start-ups, or simply giving them inspiration from a speaker on campus. We are the entrepreneurs of USD, and it is up to us to change the world, and change it fast!
