Tim Draper really wants a million people to watch StartupU on ABC Family tonight at 10p, that he is willing to donate a million of his own dollars to charity if that happens. That’s right, all you have to do is watch the show from the comfort of your own bed and several charities will benefit from it.
What is StartupU? It is like being on Shark Tank, without just having the money thrown into your lap. Draper is the founder of Draper University and he offers courses to people who want to be Entrepreneurs. The seven-week program teaches the fundamentals of launching a startup company under the mentorship of America’s business leaders. Then when they are done, they pitch their ideas. So far 150 past students have seen $15 million invested into their ideas.
Tonight, you can watch as one class hopes that not only will they graduate with plans on how to make their good idea work, but also some funding to make that great idea a reality.
So do some good and learn a little bit tonight at 10p and watch StartupU on ABC Family. I know I will be watching.
