YOUTHROCKS
YouthRocks is about bridging the gap between universities and the startup ecosystem in Taiwan by allowing students to have a hands-on experience through workshops and training as well as get connected to key people in the industry (mentors) that could support their self-development as a successful individual or entrepreneur.
YouthRocks is a place for students to freely share and work on their ideas with classmates/co-members and execute the collective ideas of their team through team cooperation. The Academy encourages diversity and would also be a channel for students to get exposure to the international startup scene and break boundaries.
The YouthRocks’ mission is to develop future young founders in Taiwan by providing the necessary resources and education that allow them to gain a competitive edge to reach their ultimate potential and thrive in their personal as well as professional life.
