Who is SuperCharger for?
SuperCharger is for ASU-affiliated groups and individuals who are looking to create social change through entrepreneurship. Ideal candidates have innovative startup ideas that will help reduce social, political, or economic inequality.
How is SuperCharger different from other programs?
SuperChargers have the opportunity to make a difference by having access to all Venture Devils’ resources. Once accepted, SuperChargers will be able to create connections with experienced entrepreneurs who have worked in the realm of social entrepreneurship. Resources, advice, and guidance for SuperChargers will be geared towards a social good or non-profit mission rather than a for-profit one. SuperChargers also have the opportunity to gain funding for their startup through our bi-annual Pitch Playoff and Demo Day events. ASU startups earn an array of available seed grants, which range between $1,000 and $100,000 in value.
