SUMMARY:SoCo Startup Week - Startup Arcade: Build\, Price\, Play
DESCRIPTION:🚀 Startup Arcade: Build\, Price\, Play\nPresented by El Pomar Institute for Innovation and Commercialization (EPIIC) \nWednesday\, August 26th | 1:30 PM–3:30 PM\nHosted at Ent Center for the Arts at UCCS \nIn the Startup Arcade\, you and your team will create a playable game from scratch! With a limited budget\, limited time\, and finite resources\, the race is on to build the best game possible. \nDo you have what it takes to corner the market? \nYour team will receive startup capital (monopoly cash) to purchase materials from the central bank. Its up to you to design\, build\, and price your game. Every choice matters. Spend too much on materials and your profit shrinks. Spend too little and your game may be lame. Price it to high and customers may say bye bye. \nTeams will put their entrepreneurial instincts to work by balancing: \n\n💰 Budgeting and resource allocation\n🛠️ Product design and development\n💲 Pricing strategy\n📣 Marketing and customer appeal\n🤝 Teamwork and creative problem-solving\n\nOnce the games are built\, the marketplace opens. Participants will receive a new stack of consumer dollars to purchase and play games from the other teams. Can your game win the competition for attention\, customers\, and revenue? \nAwards will be presented for: \n\n🏆 Most Popular Game – The game that sells the most plays\n💸 Highest Profit – The team with the greatest profit after subtracting the cost of goods sold\n\nWhether you’re an experienced founder\, a student\, a builder\, or just curious about entrepreneurship\, this hands-on workshop offers a fun way to experience the pressure\, creativity\, and strategy behind bringing a new product to market. \nCome ready to build\, price\, and play! \nWho Is This Session For\nStudents\, entrepreneurs\, creatives\, and community members interested in innovation\, collaboration\, and experiencing entrepreneurship in a fun\, hands-on way.
