🚀 Something We’ve Never Done Before...


I’m about to do something we’ve never done before at Open Classroom Experience...

For the first time, we’re hosting a FREE live group ideation session on February 1st using the LUMA framework—the exact method we use in our program to help teens co-create innovative solutions to real-world challenges.

But FIRST

This is your chance to step inside the world of innovation and see how we:

• Brainstorm solutions to global and community issues.

• Collaborate with like-minded peers to generate impactful ideas.

• Use the LUMA framework to refine ideas into actionable steps.

• Equip you with tools to keep innovating long after the session ends.

And yes, we’ll be doing it LIVE, so you’ll get a front-row seat to the same process our participants rave about.

We’ve never made this session public before, so don’t miss the chance to join and experience it for yourself! Invite your friends—because sharing is caring—and let’s innovate for good together.

See you there.

PS. This summer, we are going to tackle pressing global issues and drive innovation in regions (such as your own community) where it is needed the most. Want in?

We run a summer cohort for ambitious youth (high school and undergrads) to work directly with world-class founders while learning from Silicon Valley leaders.

You can also explore purposeful opportunities through our Impact Internship Opportunities Database.

Get Curious.

It’s that time of year again—goal-setting season. But honestly, I’ve never found it to be all that effective in helping me make decisions or take action. For example, I used to set a goal to seek out meaningful experiences and accelerate my personal growth, but I always ended up falling short because I lacked clarity.

Here’s the deal—venture capital (VC) isn’t just for seasoned pros with years of experience under their belts. It’s the playground where bold ideas meet big money. In fact, many of today’s top startups, from Instagram to Snapchat, were founded by young minds with bold ideas and a lot of hustle.
