TEA The Entrepreneur Academy San Diego

In 2011 the South Coast Chapter of TiE (The Indus Entrepreneur) first supported and sponsored TYE (TiE Young Entrepreneurs). This program matches ambitious high school students with successful entrepreneurs as mentors and college professors to help the participants learn the art, science and business of entrepreneurship. Each year since then, the local chapter has held a “pitch” competition where the student teams pitch their completed business ideas and plans in a competition, with the winning team going on to compete in the global competition. The Entrepreneur Academy (TEA) is under TEA The Entrepreneur Academy, a non-profit organization that supporters can contribute to in order to support the TYE competition and other educational programs that are designed to foster entrepreneurship.
