Nonlinear designed and led a three-day, fully immersive program that transitioned students from passive listeners to active innovators. The sessions were highly interactive, blending frameworks with action, and guiding students through every step of the entrepreneurial mindset.

Students were introduced to entrepreneurship as a mindset  -  not just the act of building a business  -  and explored how innovation can be applied in startups, social enterprises, government, and corporates. They were encouraged to identify local and personal problems they truly cared about. With the help of structured ideation tools, these problems were reframed into solvable challenges, boosting creative confidence and contextual relevance.

Using The Design Thinking Game  -  Nonlinear’s proprietary card-based toolkit  -  students explored empathy, ideation, and prototyping through play. In less than an hour, even first-time innovators were confidently building, iterating, and presenting their ideas. Rapid-fire challenges helped students embrace ambiguity, collaborate across teams, and present under time pressure  -  building real-world resilience and agility. In the final session, students applied what they learned to define their user, test problem-solution fit, and clarify their value proposition  -  forming a solid foundation for future entrepreneurial pursuits.
