Startup Hustle, a program of Hacker Lab is now accepting application for its Fall cohort. In the 3 years that the program has been running, it has helped over 150 entrepreneurs. “Our alumni have reported over $1M in either revenues or raised funds since they started,” says Casas-Murray. “It’s a great way to meet other entrepreneurs, and it’s a proven way to make sure you’ve got customers before you sink a whole bunch of time and money into a product or service.”

Startup Hustle is for entrepreneurs that want to start a business and are looking to get it underway. It consists of a series of workshops, exercises, and mentor sessions where entrepreneurs can learn and practice with like-minded peers.

The course is modeled after Steve Blank’s Lean Launchpad and is typical of an Entrepreneurship Course that one might find in Silicon Valley. The Fall cohort will be the 7th time that Startup Hustle has run in Sacramento.

Entrepreneurs can expect to learn how customers experience problems, how to look for evidence that customers for the business exist, 19 ways to build traction, and how to pitch their business once they’ve solidified their concept.

Startup Hustle begins on Thursday, September 27th 2018. Applications are being accepted until September 24th, 2018. To apply for Startup Hustle and view the curriculum, visit https://startuphustle.io.https://ranchocordova.hackerlab.org/en/events/view/679904357/ran-300–startup-hustle
