Big ideas start somewhere.
Got a business idea you cannot stop thinking about? Curious about startups, innovation, or how people turn ideas into something real? Startup Lab is where future founders, creators and problem-solvers come to experiment, collaborate and think bigger.
Startup Lab is a hands-on, one-day business experience designed for Year 10, 11 and 12 students who want more than just another classroom session. Through interactive workshops, team challenges and real-world activities, you’ll explore what it takes to build ideas, solve problems creatively, and back yourself.
You’ll work alongside current Bond students and emerging entrepreneurs, exploring how ideas are developed, tested and brought to life through creativity, collaboration and innovation.
This year’s program also explores the future of innovation, including an AI vs Human session looking at how technology is reshaping business, creativity and entrepreneurship.
Whether you already have a business idea or are simply curious about where your future could lead, Startup Lab will give you fresh perspectives, practical experiences, and connections with like-minded students.
Because every startup begins with someone willing to give it a go.
